Millions of girls around the world still miss school simply because they lack access to safe, affordable menstrual products. The image you see is more than a classroom — it’s a reminder of how far we still have to go.
From persistent cultural taboos to policy inaction, the barriers are real. Girls in rural communities face greater challenges than their urban peers. Without local manufacturing and consistent product supply, sustainability remains out of reach.
What we're doing
At The .Period Poverty Project, we’re working to:
-
Break the silence around menstrual stigma through education and community engagement.
-
Advocate for government investment in menstrual equity.
-
Bridge the gap between urban and rural schools with targeted support.
-
Strengthen local supply chains for long-term, sustainable impact.
