The Urgent Run Singapore 2016

Sanitation is a basic human right.

Yet, 2.4 billion people in the world do not have access to proper sanitation – the equivalent of ⅓ of the world’s population! Prolonged exposure to unhygienic conditions weakens a child’s immune system, stunts growth, and can cause malnutrition and diarrhoea-related diseases.
The silence around the impact of poor sanitation has dire consequences for human health, dignity and equality.

We are one of the few organisations whose sole focus is on toilets and sanitation. The subject of sanitation has been severely neglected on the global development agenda and breaking the silence on the sanitation crisis is at the heart of what we do.

Help us make this a reality by joining or hosting an Urgent Run!
