'Personal hygiene' is being emphasized above all in the situation of suffering from COVID-19 infection around the world. As it is well known, the most effective way to prevent COVID-19 is wearing a mask and washing your hands for at least 30 seconds.
In the poor areas of the Philippines, many students do not have basic education, so the level of awareness of personal hygiene is low, making them susceptible to disease. The best way to solve this problem is to teach the importance of hygiene, but there is a limit to conducting hygiene education due to the current outbreak.
In a situation where confirmed cases of COVID-19 continue to increase in the Philippines, OpenHands has planned to create and distribute online hygiene education contents in order to raise the importance and awareness of hygiene for children in poor areas of the Philippines.
The creation of this online hygiene education content was focused on being fun and effective for Filipino students.
This online training includes contents such as 'Why should I wash my hands?', 'Why should I wash my hands with soap for 30 seconds', and 'How to wash my hands.' Using Korea's 'Three Bears' nursery rhymes, we have created creative a video that can attract children's attention.
