19 November - World Toilet Day

 


World Toilet Day is observed annually on November 19. It is an international day of awareness and action to draw attention to the global sanitation crisis and the importance of access to clean and safe toilets. The day aims to break the silence around sanitation issues and raise awareness about the billions of people worldwide who still lack access to proper sanitation facilities.

World Toilet Day focuses on the importance of sanitation in reducing disease, improving health, and enhancing the overall quality of life. It also advocates for the sustainable management of sanitation resources and the need for better sanitation infrastructure.

The United Nations officially designated November 19 as World Toilet Day to align with Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6), which aims to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. The day serves as a reminder of the urgent need to address sanitation challenges globally and to work towards achieving universal access to sanitation by 2030.
