Wa-PYDO has provided sanitary kits to female secondary school students in Dollo Ado, Dollo Bay and Bokolmayo under the Cross-Border Community Resilience Activity (CBCR).
The kits help girls maintain their hygiene, encourage enrolment and allow teenage girls to continue their education.
They also matter at home. Parents, and mothers in particular, are reassured that their daughters are safe in class, and families save the money they would otherwise have had to spend on sanitary pads. Together, this supports girls’ performance at school. Read more about the Cross-Border Community Resilience Activity.
