DID YOU KNOW THAT Each month, 1.8 billion people around the world menstruate? And of that number, 500 million struggle to access menstrual products and facilities to appropriately manage their periods. Accessing products and services is just one of a complex set of challenges that contribute to period poverty. Around the world, cultural taboos and societal stigmas continue to impact the health, dignity and wellbeing of girls, and women who menstruate in managing their periods.
At Ravens foundation, we tackle the barriers to safe menstrual hygiene management by training girls and women in making reusable menstrual pads.
