Many of these girls are already living in poverty and have dropped out of school. While most interventions focus on girls in school, out-of-school girls must not be overlooked. They also deserve access to support, opportunities, and services that can help improve their lives. - @DerrickAtiki SHE SOARS project Youth Advisory Member.

"We were initially based in Kampala but later moved to Moroto to work more closely with underserved communities, where stigma and harmful cultural norms remain a significant challenge." @CreativeBernad1 Team Lead at @wabibipads.

"Imagine having to choose between food and sanitary pads. For many girls and women in Uganda, this is not a hypothetical situation it is a monthly reality. With a packet of eight disposable pads costing UGX 3,000–3,500, menstrual products can become unaffordable for families already struggling to meet basic needs. Menstruation is a biological reality, not a luxury. No girl or woman should have to miss school, work, or opportunities because she cannot afford to manage her period safely and with dignity." @BushOcean Regional Communications Coordinator @CordaidUganda

Should a girl's education depend on whether she can afford sanitary pads?

In Uganda, nearly 1 in 3 girls miss school during menstruation, and many face barriers to education, health, and dignity simply because they cannot access safe menstrual products.

Period poverty is not just a personal challenge, it is a public issue that affects education, gender equality, health, and economic development.

@Katrich12345 @SpireJim I noticed that you use small 'i' instead of an upper case to refer to yourself implies you're chaotic. And you joined Twitter in 2026. You lack cognitive abilities. No one should argue with you. Uganda is one and you're tribal sentiments must be despised and pulled down.

@drkasenene In Luo culture our food was whole so Avocado would be irrelevant in such a meal. Boo is already healthy and cassava is necessary koz it is real carbs and not refined.

@Oilsthathelp @utdforever7 @SullyTalkz @ManUtd Fair opinion mate, but you need some essential oils to build back your ability to know that there's only one U.N.I.T. E. D & that's Manchester United.
