As we talk about women standing on open seats, we need to think about how to deal with the issues that hold them back- cultural norms & practices, insufficient resources, poor education among others. @uwonet @ngoforum @equalitynow_ug @acfode @amwaafrika @CEWIGOUganda @WDNUganda

Collectively we can make a great contribution to help our daughters and sisters stay at school.
A holistic approach – one that combines education with infrastructure, products, and efforts to tackle the societal taboos & stigma is most successful in achieving good menstrual health hygiene & improving development outcomes for women & girls. @droty_uganda #Run4HerRights23
