Handwashing is a simple but effective way to prevent the spread of #COVID19 and many other diseases, keeping ourselves and those around us healthy. Yet, over 2 billion people lack basic handwashing facilities at home. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
unicef is helping to improve access to water and sanitation services in schools and communities around the world, while also promoting important hygiene practices such as handwashing.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
On Thursday's World #HandHygiene Day, help spread the word that clean hands save lives!⁣⁣
