Meet Dr. Shweta Singh - a voice unpacking the social norms and systems that continue to shape health outcomes for women and young people.

With over 12 years of experience across research, academia, and development practice, her work focuses on gender, behaviour change, community engagement, and participatory approaches to public health. She has worked extensively to understand how social structures, lived realities, and institutional systems influence the well-being of women, adolescents, and marginalised communities, particularly within health and development programmes.

At The Missing Indicator: Menstrual Health in SRHR Frameworks, she will bring a critical systems-and-social-norms lens to conversations on menstrual health integration, implementation gaps, and what meaningful institutional change should look like.

Baala is hosting “The Missing Indicator: Menstrual Health in SRHR Frameworks” - a convening bringing together policymakers, practitioners, researchers, advocates, and youth leaders for a panel discussion and open Q&A on menstrual health within SRHR systems.

Menstrual health continues to remain at the margins of healthcare systems despite being deeply connected to contraception, adolescent health, reproductive wellbeing, gender equity, and bodily autonomy.

Through this discussion, we hope to push menstrual health as a critical part of SRHR frameworks and public health systems.

A mid-course glimpse into the Baala CARE Leadership Course!

Over the past few modules, cohort members have been exploring what it means to facilitate with empathy, intention, and adaptability. From reflecting on facilitator identity and emotional regulation to engaging with participatory methods, group dynamics, and difficult conversations, the journey so far has been deeply reflective and practice-oriented.

At its core, the CARE Leadership Course is grounded in building inclusive, participatory, and community-centred approaches to leadership and facilitation.

As the course progresses, participants will continue engaging with critical questions, collaborative learning processes, and frameworks for creating more equitable and responsive spaces for dialogue and action.

We talk about reproductive health.
We talk about menstruation.
But why are these conversations still disconnected?

Menstrual health remains at the margins of healthcare systems despite being deeply linked to adolescent health, contraception, reproductive wellbeing, and bodily autonomy.

Join Baala for a cross-sector convening bringing together policymakers, practitioners, researchers, advocates, brands, and youth leaders to discuss the gaps shaping menstrual health within SRHR frameworks.

Our panel on integrating menstrual health into SRHR brought together experts across public health, law, migration, and global health to unpack what meaningful integration could truly look like.

Some of the biggest takeaways:
* Health systems cannot work in silos
* Stigma still shapes access and autonomy
* Menstrual health must move beyond products
* Rights-based approaches are essential

Thank you to everyone who joined us from across the world.
The conversation continues.

Menstrual health is increasingly recognised within SRHR discourse, yet integration within health systems remains uneven.

While awareness has expanded, gaps persist in financing, provider training, service delivery, and implementation frameworks.

The question is no longer whether menstrual health matters within SRHR.
The question is what meaningful systems integration actually requires.

Menstrual health is still treated in fragments - hygiene here, awareness there, SRHR somewhere else.

But bodies do not function in silos. Policies shouldn’t either.

Join us as we discuss what real integration could look like.

Your data. Your body. But is it really in your control?

Meet Shiwani Agrawal, your moderator for Baala’s webinar, raising a question we don’t ask enough.

Period-tracking apps promise support, but what happens when they start reducing women to just their reproductive roles? When intimate data becomes a tool for targeted ads, and consent feels like a checkbox?

So, before you click “accept,” take a moment.
Read. Reflect. Protect your data.

Let’s start asking better questions.
