WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene)

WASH stands for Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene, which are essential for health and well-being. It involves providing safe drinking water, proper waste disposal, and facilities like toilets, along with practices like handwashing with soap. These components prevent the spread of diseases such as cholera, diarrhea, and other infections. Effective WASH systems help ensure communities have clean water, proper waste management, and good hygiene habits, improving quality of life, reducing illness, and supporting development. It is a vital part of public health aimed at creating safe and healthy environments for everyone.
