Every year three million people globally die of diarrhoeal disease, most of them children. It’s one of the world’s biggest killers, yet one of the most easily preventable.

To address this, we developed PHASE; a simple hand-washing programme which teaches children how to reduce the spread of infection.

Established in 1988, the program currently operates in eight countries - Bangladesh, Kenya, Uganda, Zambia, Nicaragua, Peru, Mexico and Tajikistan - reaching more than 375,000 children and their families.
