Today, millions of women and girls around the world are stigmatised, excluded and discriminated against simply because they menstruate. It’s not acceptable that because of a natural bodily function women and girls continue to be prevented from getting education, earning an income, and fully and equally participating in everyday life.As we continue to consolidate efforts with the rest of the world to create a world where no one is held back because they menstruate, we commemorated Menstrual Hygiene Day with a series of activities that ranged from radio interviews, school engagements, webinars, and more. See below for more.
Radio interview on our flagship radio program- Gems Of Our Time- with Madam Cecilia Senoo, Executive Director of Hope For Future Generations. Full interview can be watched here.
