Indonesia Hygiene Forum

Health and hygiene in Indonesia are important issues that need to be addressed immediately. Based on Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Index report by the World Economic Forum in 2017, Indonesia ranked 109 out of 148 countries. This figure shows that the level of health and hygiene in Indonesia still relatively low.

Seeing this problem, Unilever realizes that close cooperation between community groups, academics, industry players, government, and other related parties is needed to raise awareness of the importance of health and hygiene in Indonesia.
