Everyone has the right to safe and hygienic sanitation services that provide privacy and ensure dignity. On Friday's #WorldToiletDay, learn how YOU can take action to help tackle the global sanitation crisis. un.org/en/observances…

And it's not just an issue in the U.S.

Today is #WorldToiletDay More than 1,000,000,000 people in the world defecate in the open because they lack the dignity of a toilet. For each retweet of this tweet, I will add a factoid, a citation or a link to a paper or a book on sanitation and toilets to this thread :)

In 2010, the United Nations General Assembly explicitly recognized the human right to water & sanitation & acknowledged that clean drinking water and sanitation are essential to the realisation of all human rights. #worldtoiletday

Due to Covid-19 related staffing shortages, 44 branches will be temporarily closed as of today. We've updated our map at gottagoto.ca to reflect these changes. Sadly, that's 44 fewer public (mostly wheelchair accessible) washrooms available to Torontonians.

Big thanks to Civic Tech Toronto for providing us with the time & (digital) space to talk about, and solicit feedback on our mapping initiative to connect Torontonians with public (and not-so public) washrooms. gottagoto.ca
