Our sensitization sessions in villages act as formal space for empowerment, enabling girls to effectively manage their own menstrual cycle, prevent infections, reduce odors, and stay comfortable during their period.

More needs to be done to protect people having #periods at school. #Dignity and #Respect are a basic human right #Period
#periodpoverty #periodeducation 2.1 million hours of classes missed due to period issues @bodyform @PlanUK @HeyGirlsUK @UNESCO @UNICEFEducation @AfricaSDGs17
Parents were fined for school absences—some caused by girls missing class due to toilet restrictions during their periods. Punishing poverty doesn’t fix systemic issues. Address stigma and policy failures, not add financial burdens. #EducationForAll
