When we talk about menstrual equity, we are talking about the fundamental human right to dignity, health, and education. Today at Badasa Village, we engaged out of school teen moms in Marsabit County in mentorship on menstrual Hygiene Management #MHM #EndPeriodStigma @IfPC15

[IfPCKenya @IfPC15]

Girls & teen mothers in villages are most often left out when it comes to @menstrualhealth awareness & #EndPeriodPoverty agenda. To make them count, with @Kmet_Kenya we visited Badassa Village - Marsabit with message on menstrual health & distributed sanitary pads.

This morning in collaboration with @Kmet_Kenya we took #MenstrualHygiene awareness and #EndPeriodPoverty agenda to Leyai pry sch -Songa, among the target beneficiaries were teen mothers and girls out of school.

Halima Huron YANK focal person Marsabit County “ #FGM is not supported by any religion. So in order to bring and end to FGM we must adopt and embrace change. There is always some resistance to change due to fear of the unknown. Change begins with YOU.
