Global Handwashing Day

Lifebuoy Global Handwashing Day

To promote understanding of the importance of handwashing, Lifebuoy launched Global Handwashing Day, together with the United Nations and other partners. Lifebuoy brand teams in 23 countries helped raise awareness about how handwashing with soap can prevent disease. Last year the Australian and New Zealand team helped guide the program in Fiji.
