Project Spotlight: Sang Pour Sang (SPS) Project | Adamawa State
We are pleased to share that HARAF has just concluded the SPS Project funded by Agence Française de Développement and Fòs Feminista: Addressing Menstrual Discrimination through Advocacy, Education, Community and Stakeholder Engagement in Adamawa State. The project set out to end menstrual discrimination by challenging stigma and misinformation through advocacy, education, and community engagement.
The impact, in a story of community-led change:
Across Yolde Patte, Namtari, Badrissa, Vonoklang, and the IDP Camp, we trained 22 Community Champions to lead locally, and mobilized 52 stakeholders and religious leaders for norm change. Through intergenerational dialogue, 1,872 elderly women were engaged, while 693 culturally appropriate IEC materials were distributed to reinforce key messages.
In total, 2,140 lives were touched across the 5 intervention communities.
The result: stronger community ownership, reduced stigma, and a louder voice for menstrual dignity in Adamawa.
