Tackling Period Poverty in Kenya: Empowering Women and Educating Families
Welcome to Goal Women Africa, Kenya chapter, where we are committed to addressing period poverty in Kenya through mentorship, empowerment, and community engagement.
Our Mission
Period poverty affects countless women and girls, hindering their education, health, and overall well-being. Our mission is to eradicate period poverty by providing comprehensive training for women and educating families about menstrual hygiene and health
Our Training Program
We have launched a groundbreaking training program specifically designed for women who are passionate about tackling period poverty. Our training covers:
Menstrual Hygiene Management
Teaching women the importance of maintaining menstrual hygiene and providing practical solutions
Environmental Health Benefits
Highlighting the environmental impact of proper menstrual hygiene practices and promoting sustainable options
Advocacy and Leadership
Equipping women with the skills to become advocates and leaders in their communities, driving change and awareness
Community Tours
We believe that education should extend beyond individual training sessions. That’s why we are organizing tours across Nairobi to engage with parents and guardians. These tours aim to:
Educate Parents
Inform parents about the importance of menstrual hygiene and how to support their children through this natural process
Combat Menstrual Shame
Provide parents with the tools to help their children avoid menstrual shame and stigma, fostering open and supportive conversations
Empower Families
Ensure that parents are the first source of information and support for their children regarding menstrual health
