What does a period friendly world means for you? That a variety of quality period products - not only single-use products - are available and affordable in all countries, and for every menstruator. That all the menstruators also have access to the information they need to safely and effectively manage their period. That quality menstrual products are available in public venues, for free. That menstrual education is available for children in schools to prepare them to be ready when they will hit puberty, and help them know what to do when they have their menstruation. That schools are period friendly environments where menstruators can happily and safely bleed. #endperiodpoverty #menstruationmatters #menstruation #periodtalk #periodfriendlyworld #menstrualequity

#RedCampaign We definitely agree with Ruth Kyamuwendo that for soo long menstrual hygiene issues have been a taboo in our societies. We need to normalise these conversations so we can help girls have safe and dignified periods. Ruth Kyamuwendo also implores us all to involve community elders in these dialogues since they have alot of influence and can help end the stigma and lack of period products. Together we can end period poverty and stigma. #EndPeriodPoverty #EndPeriodStigma
