Celebrated Menstrual Hygiene Day with these champions 💕
We trained girls & young women on MHM. Facts over myths, confidence over shame, dignity over silence.
Because no girl should miss school or hide because of her period.

More than 700 women die every day from preventable causes related to pregnancy and childbirth.

Making motherhood safer must be a human rights imperative.

@UNFPA calls on governments to make greater investments in maternal health.
