Menstruation is a matter of pride for every woman and adolescent girl.
Menstruation is a matter of pride for every woman and adolescent girl. The aim of Project Swabhimaan is to spread awareness about menstrual health among adolescent girls and women and break their silence. To manage menstrual health with dignity and bring confidence in them.
According to our survey, school dropout ratio increases due to misunderstanding about menstruation, insufficient knowledge, inadequate sanitation facilities, superstitions spread by the society. So we provide them with an in-depth understanding from personal hygiene to facing certain risks. We aim to remove the taboo/stigma of menstruation and increase self-confidence in adolescent girls through interactive workshops, group discussions and audio video visuals.
Chausar Primary School, Daskroi Taluka, Ahmedabad is located in which we have completed two sessions in a period of three years. Thus, we were able to understand the difference between the two sessions that we held periodically. From the second session, all the adolescent girls were freely having group discussions. And were sharing their experiences of menstruation with each other. We are happy that we have been able to reach the path of success by spreading awareness about menstruation through this mission. Senior Aarti Soni Thank you very much for joining us in this program and encouraging us and making the program more successful.
