MoU signed between BRAC and Dettol

BRAC and Dettol have recently committed to work together through signing a memorandum of understanding (MoU), to provide hygiene services to the vulnerable pregnant women of Bangladesh. Under this collaboration, BRAC and Dettol will raise hygiene awareness among underprivileged expecting mothers living in remote areas of the country and provide Dettol soap as a hygiene solution to them for free.

Under the agreement, Dettol will provide hygiene solutions to pregnant women through BRAC's Health, Nutrition and Population Program. With their expertise and training, BRAC's health workers will act as the frontline contact point through which hygiene services will be delivered to more than 1 lakh pregnant mothers throughout August and September.

BRAC will also educate mothers in proper hand washing practices as well as basic hygiene practices and guidelines in hygiene.
