Menstrual hygiene
Sanitary provision and awareness — keeps adolescent girls in school past puberty.
Back to Women Empowerment
Overview
This programme combines the provision of sanitary products with awareness sessions on menstrual health, aimed primarily at adolescent girls and the women around them. Its stated purpose is direct: keeping girls in school past the point where puberty often pushes them out. It serves girls in communities where sanitary products are hard to access or afford, and where menstruation is rarely discussed openly at home or in the classroom.
