Jack Sim, aka Mr. Toilet, is the founder of the World Toilet Organization and planned the first Toilet World Summit which interested the media, so in 2013, the U.N. recognized officially the work of this organization and established the World Toilet Day on November 19th.
The World Toilet Organization has also founded the Toilet College which provides a patented learning model that guarantees the best standards and practices for sanitation in urban and rural contexts. The aim is not only an education for cleaning and maintenance, but also for sanitation, changing behaviors, public policies, social business, and giving advice to the ones who clean and fix public toilets.
In 2014, Sim was called by Indian Prime Minister Modi to build 110 million public services as part of his campaign Swachh Bharat (Clean India), an effort to reduce public defecation. Jack Sim also provided public toilets to over 600 million people in 60 months. According to his organization, every dollar spent on water and public toilets produces a return of $4.3 in the reduction of health care costs which means a profitable project for every government.
In 2019 a movie talking about Jack Sim’s story came out, it’s called “Mr. Toilet, the world’s #2 man”. Here’s the trailer:
