Breaking the Silence: Menstrual Health Orientation Empowers Schoolgirls
As part of the Women with Wings initiative supported by UPDESCO, an orientation session on Menstrual Health and Hygiene Management was conducted for schoolgirls to break the silence and stigma around menstruation. The session focused on educating girls about the menstrual cycle, hygiene practices, nutrition, and the safe use of menstrual products. Through interactive discussions and myth-busting activities, the orientation created a safe space for girls to ask questions and gain confidence in managing their periods.
This effort aims to empower young girls with knowledge, promote school attendance, and foster a culture of dignity, health, and awareness around menstruation
