This webinar explored girls’ visions for supportive menstrual environments in schools, building on the 2024 International Day of the Girl theme. We delved into the importance of product choice, including the acceptability of washable pads, and the challenges girls face in managing menstrual waste, both at school and in their communities. We also discussed the role of menstrual health education, based on research from MIET Africa with support from UNICEF, and watched a recording from schoolgirls about challenges they face managing their periods at school. Finally, we explored the Menstrual Health Guidelines developed by South Africa’s Department of Basic Education.
