#Menstrual hygiene is not admittedly the first thought many have during natural disasters, but it is an ongoing problem for women in affected areas. Having no access to sanitary napkins poses health risks to entire communities.

The Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe is devastating—for low-income women and disproportionately for women of color, the impact will be catastrophic. But advocates are determined to not cede this fight.

#Afghan women are in a crisis with most basic human rights taken. They are asking how the world intends to help. How does the international community intend to assist? If you have ideas, tell us. #Afghanistan #Afghan

Thank you <3

#childmarriage occurs globally and often against the will of very young women before they have defined their sense of self or life goals. Raising the marriage age helps ensure underage girls are not bound.
Hurray! A new law raises the minimum marriage age to 18 in England and Wales. Congratulations to
