World Toilet Day is celebrated every year on November 19th to advocate for toilets, sanitation and hygiene for billions of people globally. World Toilet Day is intended to bring attention to the problems millions of people face concerning safe clean toilets.
World Toilet Day advocates for action for improved sanitation and sanitation systems from government and organizations, and individuals that when in place, does improve health in our communities and beyond, because if we don’t we are putting ourselves and our loved ones at risk of infection, disease, and possible contaminated drinking water, along with regularly having medically significant diarrhea.
World Toilet Day in 2025 does not have a theme yet, however, this day does focus on issues with clean safe drinking water and hygiene to help inspire awareness and respect globally.
Safe sanitation is about clean health. It is about dignity and living free from fear. Communities with toilets are less likely to be infected with communicable disease, women are safe, and, better quality of life overall. Safe sanitation also reduces our impact on the environment by lowering the amount of waste disposed of in rivers and its impact on soil.
Over 3.5 billion people worldwide do not have access to a safe toilet, resulting in thousands of deaths each year. Improving sanitation by providing a clean toilet will prevent illness and increase public health.
You can raise awareness, support communities in need, contribute resources to sanitation, and improve sanitation where you live.
