Keeping Girls Healthy, Safe and in School
A girl should never have to miss school because she is menstruating.
Yet menstrual health is closely connected to the everyday conditions in which a girl learns: access to menstrual products, clean underwear, soap, water, a safe and private toilet, accurate information and a trusted space where she can seek help without shame.
DigniCare takes a holistic approach to menstrual and school health by addressing these interconnected needs.
It is about ensuring that girls have the essentials they need to manage menstruation safely and confidently,sanitary products, clean panties, soap, water and clean, private toilets,while creating safe spaces where they can learn, ask questions and access appropriate health and psychosocial support.
But the goal goes beyond menstrual hygiene.
It is about creating a healthy school environment where girls can attend regularly, participate fully, concentrate in class and grow with confidence.
Through menstrual health education, WASH, school health services, dignity kits, safe spaces and linkages to healthcare, DigniCare helps remove the practical and social barriers that can disrupt a lot more girl’s education.
Because when a girl has what she needs to manage her period with dignity, she is more able to stay in school, learn without interruption and participate without shame.
Menstrual health is school health.
School health is a foundation for a girl’s future.
And dignity is at the heart of both.
