"Toilet Loss" in schools costs US$1.9 billion, finds new four-country study from Economist Impact

Thursday, November 16, 2023

 LONDON, Nov. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Nearly 540 million children globally go to a school with no usable toilet, affecting them physically and emotionally during crucial education years. New research from Economist Impact reveals that almost half of these children are affected by 'toilet loss' - toilets have been built in their school, but they have been lost and are not usable due to lack of operation and maintenance (O&M). This hidden worldwide problem puts school infrastructure maintenance sharply in focus.

Key Points: 
  • Economist Impact's year-long study supported by Unilever across Ecuador, India, Nigeria and the Philippines found that poor maintenance led to 1.2m 'lost' school toilets; that's toilets that have been built but are no longer usable.
  • This equates to a combined infrastructure loss of US$1.9bn and a societal and economic cost amounting to US$10bn.
  • The world needs 20m additional toilets to reach the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal of universal sanitation in schools.
  • Economist Impact analysis shows that eight million of those are currently 'lost' because they were built with no plan to maintain them.

Popsicle® Launches Second Year of Stick with Art Campaign to Help Bridge the Arts Education Gap

Thursday, March 7, 2024

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Popsicle is a brand created by a kid and committed to championing kids' imaginations, starting in the classroom. Many children do not get a chance to flex their imaginations in their classrooms or enjoy the long-lasting benefits of the arts due to a lack of resources for arts programming. Despite widespread support for arts education funding in the U.S., and consensus that art is an essential part of a well-rounded education, there has been a persistent decline in arts education funding over the last four decades – and it continues to decline, particularly in under-resourced schools.1 Students without access to arts education, often from lower-income families in underserved areas, are those who rely the heaviest on schools to experience any arts opportunities.2

Key Points: 
  • In partnership with the National Art Education Association, Popsicle announces second phase of Stick with Art!
  • From November 1, 2023, – December 10, 2023, Popsicle is inviting art teachers and parents to participate in the Stick with Art!
  • "We are extremely honored to continue our partnership with NAEA to support Popsicle's commitment to help bridge the arts education gap and help kids stick with art," said Bentley King, U.S. Head of Ice Cream Operations at Unilever.
  • "Popsicle's continued advocacy for equitable access to arts education for students across the country furthers the work we do to advance arts education every day."
