Awareness Sessions
Promoting awareness and providing accurate information about menstruation is pivotal for ensuring good menstrual health and hygiene among all women. It is crucial to educate young girls about the basics of menstruation to instill confidence and empower them with knowledge, enabling a better understanding of the overall menstrual cycle.
Our educational modules cater to various audiences, taking into consideration their age, level of understanding, requirements, and education. In addition to addressing the needs of young girls and rural women, we have designed specific sessions tailored for different groups.
For corporate women employees, we offer a specialized session focusing on imparting knowledge about various sanitary hygiene products such as disposable sanitary pads, reusable cloth sanitary pads, menstrual cups, tampons, etc. The session covers their usage, pros and cons, and proper disposal methods.
