On 26th March 2025 Forum for the development of youth with disabilities - FDYD through Bangwe YOUTH network mw youth in Bangwe, with the generous support and donation of sanitary wear and hygiene products by Hands of Hope Malawi , hosted a vital event for girls and young women who are part of local youth clubs within Bangwe.
The activity consisted of an inclusive training on menstrual health,hygiene and distribution of reusable sanitary pads, providing a sustainable solution for managing their periods and staying in school.
Throughout the training girls and young women had the privilege of interacting with other young women in tertiary education who are role models and played a pivotal role in motivating them to work hard and go the extra mile .
This initiative breaks down barriers and empowers these young women and girls to thrive. We're grateful for the partnership and the collective positive impact towards girls and women empowerment.
