The government has launched an awareness campaign for the first time in Bangladesh to improve household food safety and hygiene practices.
The campaign on ‘washing and cleaning during food preparation’ targets rural women who are primarily responsible for preparing family meals and feeding infants.
The UN’s Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) supported the campaign based on their study findings that showed only 14 percent people in the homes wash hands with soap before preparing food, while only 26 percent know it can remove harmful germs.
