A community-led menstrual health model

Students proposed an eight-week safe space programme where girls and women gain menstrual health knowledge, learn to produce reusable menstrual products, and develop basic economic skills. The model addresses menstruation not only as a health issue, but also as one shaped by stigma, safety,silence and economic constraints – with long-term sustainability rooted in community ownership.
