🚀 Big things are happening in Ghana!
1 million girls across 3,200 schools will soon receive impactful menstrual hygiene management (MHM) education through the GAMA Sanitation and Water Project, supported by the Ministry of Sanitation and Water Resources and the World Bank. This marks an important step forward for Ghana, where currently 9 out of 10 girls miss school during their period. (Ghana Menstrual Health Snapshot, Nov 17, 2023)
This large-scale rollout of the MHM Education Guide demonstrates how well it can be used to reach vast numbers of girls, especially in settings where accessibility is key. The Guide is easy to use, affordable, and already tailored to four world regions, among them the Sub-Saharan African context—making it the ideal tool for this powerful initiative.
It’s a prime example of the scalability of the MHM Education Guide, designed to fit seamlessly into large programs and impact the lives of millions.
We’re incredibly proud to be part of this initiative, reaching every single girl indirectly through Amas World.
