UNITED NATIONS Scarpe Nike Air Max 90 Scontate , Nov. 19 (Xinhua) -- UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on Thursday said "one in every three people lacks improved sanitation" and called for adequate sanitation worldwide on World Toilet Day.
Stressing that "Sanitation is central to human and environmental health as well as to individual opportunity, development and dignity," Ban pointed out in his message to mark the day that "Yet today, worldwide Nike Air Max 90 Scontate , one in every three people lacks improved sanitation, and one in every eight practices open defecation."
This year's observance of World Toilet Day on Nov. 19 focuses on the vicious cycle connecting poor sanitation and malnutrition. Poor sanitation and hygiene are at the heart of disease and malnutrition, said Ban.
"Each year, too many children under the age of five have their lives cut short or altered forever as a result of poor sanitation: more than 800 Uomo Nike Air Max 97 KPU Nere Scontate Italia ,000 children worldwide -- or one every two minutes-- die from diarrhea, and almost half of all deaths of children under five are due to undernutrition," said Ban.
Ban noted that "Despite the compelling moral and economic case for action on sanitation, progress is too little and too slow."
By many accounts Uomo Nike Air Max 97 2017 Retro Oro Scontate Italia , sanitation is the most-missed target of the Millennium Development Goals, said Ban. "This is why the Call to Action on Sanitation was launched in 2013, and why we aim to end open defecation by 2025."
"We must continue to educate and protect communities at risk, and to change cultural perceptions and long-standing practices that hinder the quest for dignity Uomo Nike Air Max 97 2017 Retro Argento Scontate Italia ," he said.
"By working together, and by having an open and frank discussion on the importance of toilets and sanitation, we can improve the health and well-being of one-third of the human family," he said.
The aim of World Toilet Day is to raise awareness about the people in the world who don't have access to a toilet Nike Air Max Plus TN Ultra Bianche Scontate Italia , despite the fact that it is a human right to have clean water and sanitation.

NEW YORK, June 16 (Xinhua) -- U.S. stocks posted solid gains for the week, as concern about a global economic slowdown in a post-Brexit environment receded amid an array of generally upbeat economic reports.
Both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 refreshed their record highs for several times during the week.
Investor euphoria was initially ignited by June's strong nonfarm report released last week. It showed that U.S. total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 287,000 in June, well above market consensus of 175,000.
Investors believed that the nonfarm report mollified concerns of an economic slowdown in the United States, as May's payroll rose only 38,000 and notched the fewest monthly job gain in almost six years.
On Monday, U.S. stocks extended previous session's solid gains on the robust jobs data, with the S&P 500 setting its new intraday and closing records for the first time in 2016.
On Tuesday, U.S. stocks rallied for a third straight session, with the Dow and the S&P 500 closing at their new records, boosted by a strong rebound in oil prices.
On Wednesday, U.S. stocks closed mixed as investors digested the Federal Reserve's Beige Book for more clues on the timing of a next rate hike, yet the Dow and the S&P 500 still managed to eclipse Tuesday' s closing records.
On Thursday, U.S. equit. |
