World Menstrual Hygiene Day 2026: Breaking Taboos and Building Allies!

Today, May 28, 2026, Bright Light Projects Buea team held a sensitization campaign workshop at St. Rita Cascia Academy College n Buea to commemorate World Menstrual Hygiene Day. Students from Form One to Form Five, along with Class Six pupils, were educated on menstrual health, hygiene practices, and the importance of tracking their cycles. Over 60 sanitary pads were distributed to ensure immediate practical support.

What made this campaign truly unique was the active participation of boys, who were encouraged to become allies in creating a stigma-free environment for girls. This inclusive approach reflects BLP’s belief that menstrual health is not just a girls’ issue, it is a community responsibility.
