The Japan Committee for UNICEF has launched a “School of Handwashing” program for Global Handwashing Day 2011. By attending this “school”, children can learn not only the proper way of handwashing but also how to make original handmade soaps, and to learn world hygiene issues through a special textbook. Following last year, we posted a notice to invite 100 supporters to hold their own “Schools” this year. Through these events, we are hoping that all participants will be united and take the roles of “teachers” to promote proper handwashing and raise awareness of hygiene issues all over Japan.


“The School of Handwashing” Gather around, everyone!
