Clean water, sanitation and hygiene are the foundation of children's health and learning
On August 28, in Bishkek, the UN World Food Programme (WFP), together with the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), the Ministry of Education and Science of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Ministry of Health of the Kyrgyz Republic, and Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic held a practical workshop on WASH standards for schools.
The key highlight of the event was the presentation of a practical handbook on implementing clean water, sanitation, and hygiene standards in educational institutions to school principals.
What does the WASH framework in schools include?
🔹 Access to safe drinking water and quality sanitation facilities.
🔹 Convenient handwashing stations and adherence to food hygiene rules.
🔹 Creating an inclusive, accessible, and comfortable environment for all children, including children with disabilities.
During the workshop, representatives of schools participating in the school feeding project discussed the work of school health committees and methods for developing healthy habits among students.
📍 What's next? Later this week, a similar workshop will be held in Osh for representatives of schools from the southern regions of Kyrgyzstan!
Together, we are creating a safe and healthy environment for the future generation!

We often share stories about our projects, support for children, and humanitarian missions. But we rarely show the faces of the people who make it all happen. Yet behind every report figure and every donation box, there are real people.
Today, we decided to change that. We set up a little challenge for our team: "Get a candy if you're not late for work." Some arrived right on time and got their sweet reward, while others missed out on candy today — but made it into our video instead 🍬
Why did we do this? Because we want you to get to know us better: not just through official reports and news, but through our everyday, authentic lives. We want to connect more, answer your questions, hear your thoughts, and simply be closer to you 🤗
So, let's get acquainted! 💚
