WHO CleanHandsNet - a network of campaigning countries
What is WHO CleanHandsNet?
Embedding hand hygiene promotional activities as a national priority is key for sustainability. Efforts have therefore been made to support countries or areas with large scale activities to promote hand hygiene in health care.
WHO Patient Safety supports an informal network of coordinators/leaders of such activities with the aim of sharing experiences and learning from each other. At this moment there are 48 participants in the network with coordinated activities to promote hand hygiene in health care either as specific activities or as part of infection prevention and control activities or patient safety initiatives.
