The best kinda Sunday - hand delivering 45 packs of reusable pads made by our student volunteers to our amazing partners who we’re getting to work with again - this time in Malaysia!
In the amazing city of Kuala Lumpur, we spent time with GRT’s amazing Lina and Dr Fatima, a leading researcher and spokesperson on period poverty in Malaysia.
Period poverty here affects a wide range of communities, from school and university students, to women in rural areas, orphanages, prisons, and refugee populations including Rohingya, Syrian and Palestinian communities.
But there’s a real opportunity to make a difference here. There is already openness to reusable solutions, and strong local knowledge about where support is most needed.
It was so wonderful to finally meet in person after working together remotely for the last year as well as get insights from the fab who has pioneered the movement to end period poverty in Malaysia 🇲🇾
Excited for what’s next!
