Menstrual health challenges spur empowerment initiative for women in Katanga
Millions of girls and women across the globe lack dignified, healthy ways to manage their menstruation due to hurdles including gender inequality, discriminatory social norms, and poverty. Poor menstrual health can limit girls’ rights to attend school, work, or participate in society, diminishing their opportunities to thrive throughout life. That’s one of the reasons why the Could You Organisation has engaged women in Katanga, Kawempe Division, to empower them to understand their menstrual cycles and avoid unwanted pregnancies.
