🇺🇬 Kasigiri, #Uganda: @ReliefWomen Uganda hosted a menstrual hygiene awareness session, teaching girls & women about periods, hygiene & confidence, and providing participants with a reusable pad kit. Providing support that keeps girls in school & menstrual dignity intact.
#Uganda: Period poverty and inadequate sanitation facilities continue to be primary challenges facing young women & adolescent girls during their menstruation in Uganda.
@ReliefWomen in partnership with @ThePachaProject are supporting local community with reusable sanitary pads.
In rural Uganda, period poverty frequently forces young girls to miss school and limits women's daily activities due to a lack of affordable sanitary products and deep rooted cultural stigmas.
Our trainers taught reproductive cycle tracking, replacing shame with confidence.
