Handwashing challenge
WHO invites people all around the world to join in and show how they are following WHO guidance and the right steps to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

There are two ways to practice hand hygiene:
To join the Challenge, show us how you are keeping your hands clean: record the video following the WHO guidance and share it on your social media accounts. Invite your friends to join. If you wish, you can interpret the steps in your own language.
Where to watch:

We look forward to watching your videos. And we will feature the most creative/engaging ones on WHO channels.
Let’s be ready and safe from COVID-19! Let’s beat coronavirus together!
