Hygiene
Take care of YOUR BODY, it is the only placeYOU HAVE TO LIVE IN (by, Jim Rohn)
What is Hygiene?
Hygiene is a practice of keeping yourself and your surroundings clean to preserve health. According to the WHO, “Hygiene refers to conditions and practices that help to maintain health and prevent the spread of diseases.”
Poor hygiene practices leads to number of health issues. With growing population, millions of people are forced to live in in-humane conditions, and due to the lack of toilets such people defecate in open areas, fields, parks, as well in bodies of water such as river and lake side which gives birth to certain deadly diseases. Not washing hands regularly specially before meals and after going to the toilet can put child’s life at risk, according to the UNICEF, over 700 children across the world under age 5 die every day of diarrheic diseases due to lack of appropriate WASH services (WASH stands for “water, sanitation, and hygiene“).
Safe drinking-water, sanitation, and hygiene are crucial to human health and well-being . Govt of India campaign “SWACCH BHARAT MISSION” doing a tremendous job, and there are many more such campaigns, but it is not just the Govt duty, we the proud citizens of India also needs to contribute as well in by maintaining personal hygiene, keeping our home and surrounding clean and follow best hygiene practice and most importantly teach our children from every early age the importance of hygiene.
Growing up in a clean and safe environment is every child’s basic right.
