Open defecation poses serious health, safety and environmental risks. Ending it is essential for a healthier and more dignified society. Here is why it matters:
1. Protects Clean Water Sources. Prevents contamination of drinking water.
2. Stops the Spread of Diseases. Reduces risks of diarrhoea, cholera, and other infections.
3. Improves Hygiene and Living Conditions. Makes communities safer and cleaner.
4. Promotes Dignity and Safety. Especially important for the privacy and protection of women and children.
5. Boosts Economic Growth and Education. Healthy people can work and attend school regularly.
Take Action Today: Use a toilet—public facilities are available near you. Locate one and protect your health and community.
