Globally, nearly half of all healthcare facilities and half of all households do not have basic handwashing facilities with soap and water. 

By signing our pledge, you're raising your voice in support of the human right to clean water, sanitation and hygiene. No one can live a healthy, productive or dignified life without these three essentials. 

This is a crisis and makes good hygiene impossible for millions, contributing to the spread of diseases like COVID-19.
