Hand Hygiene For All
The project is a collaborative research project of doctors and students investigating the barriers to provide running water in schools across the globe in 120 countries. We also present solutions to provide water for hand hygiene during COVID19 pandemic and beyond. The project is dedicated to support The UNICEF project Hand Hygiene for All and the Tap project. From creating water from air, expanding a bicycle transportation network, from collecting air moisture to roof collection tanks, communities across the globe deal with the sad reality that 42% of schools around the globe do not have access to water.
A special thanks to the premedical students who created posters for the Global Health Conference. All their posters can be found in this blog post.
