Objectives of the Campaign:
This campaign aims to spread information about safe menstrual practices and dispel myths with scientific reasoning. The subject of menstruation and menstrual hygiene has been a big taboo in our society. Many girls still follow many myths especially those who have limited access to sanitary pads or menstrual education. Worse still, girls are looked down upon and considered impure when they have the periods. The campaign offers participants an opportunity to be open-minded about menstruation, encouraging young girls to be able to talk about it more freely. The Campaign aims to achieve the following objectives:
- - To educate young girls about menstrual hygiene
- - To destigmatize menstruation
- - To spread awareness among men regarding period-positivity
- - To promote body-positivity
- - To engage mothers and normalize talking about periods
- - To spread awareness about sustainable menstrual hygiene and encourage the use of eco-friendly products.
Was There A Need For This Campaign?
Periods don't stop during a pandemic. Meeting the menstrual needs of women and girls is critical to ensuring their health, human rights, and dignity. Through the campaign, FairGaze aims to empower girls and women with knowledge and information to better manage their menstrual health and hygiene.
