Menstrual Hygiene Management Enables Women and Girls to Reach Their Full Potential.
In Sierra Leone, cultural stigma and societal discrimination continue to surround menstruation. Many girls face shame and exclusion when they start their periods. Inadequate menstrual hygiene education, insufficient water and sanitation facilities, and limited access to sanitary materials in schools have disrupted their education. Thousands of Sierra Leonean girls miss school during their menses, impacting their attendance, learning outcomes, and overall completion rates. WATCH this short video, produced by AYV Media Empire and Salone Messenger Media, which highlights the challenges and successes in Menstrual Hygiene Management in Sierra Leone, and the incredible contributions of individuals and organisations working to ensure that women and girls are not limited by something as natural as their periods. You can join the global campaign too! Support the individuals and organisations working for menstrual hygiene management and make your voice heard. Let's create a world in which every woman and girl can manage her menstruation in a hygienic way – wherever she is – in privacy, safety and with dignity! More stories: www.ayvnews.com ????
