In the course of our advocacy, we work to ensure all girls have access to information and support needed to manage their periods with dignity so they can stay in school and achieve their dreams and aspirations.
When a community gets clean water, decent toilets, and good hygiene, it’s the lives of women and girls that can change the most.
“Periods shouldn’t come in the way of achieving our dreams. I don’t think any girl should miss a school day because she is a girl.”
Young people are powerful agents of change and are vital in helping break the taboo and stigma of periods. By giving young people a voice and empowering them to speak out on issues traditionally seen as taboo, they can be the change needed.
Periods are problem globally. The taboo around periods is still very much alive in Nigeria, which is why we’re proud to help break the stigma and taboos of periods by encouraging everyone, everywhere to talk about periods.
