Thanks @CeHDI_health & partners
📌 Menstruation is a natural process for 1.9 billion people, yet access to menstrual hygiene products remains a global inequity.
This Menstrual Hygiene Day, we are reminded that no girl or woman should be denied education, work, health, or dignity because of a period. The World Bank estimates that 500 million women and girls cannot reliably access safe menstrual products or adequate sanitation facilities, thus deepening health inequalities, especially in underserved communities.
The UN Human Rights Council’s 2024 Resolution 56/11 calling for the removal of discriminatory taxes on menstrual products is an important step. But affordability is also a supply chain, trade policy, and standards issue that requires sustained political commitment and accountability at the national level and across multilateral institutions.
🌍 As the global community works toward achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC), menstrual health must be an integral part of that architecture. Building a #PeriodFriendlyWorld means ensuring menstrual hygiene products and services are accessible and affordable, to uphold the dignity and the right to health for all women and girls, everywhere.

Delighted to congratulate Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, former Secretary, DHR and former DG, ICMR, on being elected Fellow of The Royal Society !!
A proud and historic milestone - she is only the second Indian woman scientist to receive this prestigious honour in its 400+ year history.
Thailand is close to ending AIDS as a public health threat.
Now is the moment to complete the last mile: halt new HIV infections, invest in prevention, protect community-led responses, and ensure equitable access to HIV services.
