People with basic handwashing facilities including soap and water, rural (% of rural population)

This indicator measures the proportion of the rural population residing in households equipped with accessible handwashing facilities that provide both soap and water. These facilities can be stationary installations like sinks or portable options such as buckets and tippy-taps, all designed to promote hygiene. The inclusion of various types of soap—ranging from bar to liquid—emphasizes the importance of hygiene practices in reducing disease transmission. Focusing on rural areas highlights the unique challenges faced in these communities, such as limited access to clean water and sanitation infrastructure. By tracking this percentage, we can assess progress in improving public health standards and promote initiatives targeting hygiene education and resource allocation in underserved regions. Source:
