where she is provided access to basic wash and sanitation facilities and
sustainable period products , in order to be able to have a equal chance at
life , livelihood and independence to make her choices.
Our ACTIVITIES:
To improve girls’/women’s situation of
menstrual health the RAGMHH is engaging with the community to :
1) Provide girls and women with menstrual
hygiene articles of their choice:
Menstrual cups
Biodegradable sanitary and/or cloth
napkins
Reusable sanitary and/or cloth napkins
These articles will be provided against
payment of a small donation of an amount the woman can afford. Alternatively,
it will be given for free.
2) The project group obtains these
articles by buying them from manufacturers or by creating micro-businesses of
manufacturing to add the value of earning money to a village.
3) Provide schools/villages with water
supply and gender-based lavatories and take care of its maintenance
4) Regular counselling: Provide
girls/women with information about the use of these articles (pro’s and con’s
of each item with regards to: health, age, reusability, environment, need of
water, hours of use etc.), break taboos and educate
5) Create awareness of this topic all over
the planet to raise funds and to take action
