La Journ¨¦e Mondiale des Toilettes World Toilet Day 19 Novembre 19th November
Toilets: an important issue for the United Nations community
2.5 billion people do not have ¡°proper¡± toilets ¨C this is more than one third of all humanity! 1 billion people poop in the open 2 out of 3 live in Asia 1 out of 4 lives in Africa
In practice, what does it mean? In India, many children (and adults) poo on the street ¡­ ¡­ or directly in rivers
In practice, what does it mean? In Africa, toilets (when they exist!) are often VERY basic
Why is it a problem?
A problem easily solved!!
Why should we do something about it? ? To avoid diseases (diarrhea, cholera) ? To help children grow well¡­ and learn well ? To clean up rivers and the environment
And us? How was it before? In 1858, the Thames river got so stinky (with poo and other waste) that MPs finally decided to do something about it¡­ and to construct the sewer system!
In India, the prime minister, Mr Modi, decided that things had to change and to clean India! So, what can we do? Education? ¡°Take the Poo to the Loo!¡± Send the police? Give awards to those who build toilets?
And why is it important to speak about it here? What can we do? It¡¯s your turn to tell us what you think!
