Menstrual Hygiene Awareness
Aligning with national health schemes to break taboos, promote education, and provide safe, high-quality sanitary solutions for adolescent girls across rural areas and educational institutions.
Addressing the Menstrual Hygiene Crisis
The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has introduced a critical scheme for the promotion of menstrual hygiene among adolescent girls in the age group of 10-19 years in rural areas.
Improper menstrual hygiene management forces many young girls to miss school, leading to a high dropout rate and severe health complications. Shifa Al Hind is committed to eradicating this issue by making menstruation easy, hygienic, and dignified.
"Menstruation is essential for human existence. Let's make it easy, hygienic and dignified!"
The Three Core Objectives
We tackle menstrual hygiene management through a comprehensive, three-pronged strategy designed to empower girls and protect the environment.
1. Education & Awareness
To significantly increase awareness among adolescent girls. We conduct interactive workshops led by medical experts to educate girls on biological facts, proper hygiene habits, and to break socio-cultural stigmas and taboos.
2. High-Quality Access
To increase access to and use of high-quality sanitary napkins. We install Smart Vend automated machines directly in schools, colleges, and rural targeted locations so girls have reliable access exactly when they need it.
3. Safe & Eco Disposal
To ensure the safe disposal of used sanitary napkins in an environmentally friendly manner. We deploy Smart Burn incinerator machines that instantly turn waste into sterile ash, preventing plumbing blockages and biohazards.
