Without a clean toilet at school, with water, a bolt on the door and a bin, many girls do not want to come to school on the days of their period, and fall behind.
The idea: with the school and a woman teacher, check the girls’ toilets: is there water, soap, a covered bin, a door that locks from inside? A small box of pads can be kept with a woman teacher for emergencies.
Once a year, bring in a health worker to talk with the girls about hygiene during periods. No shame in it; it is natural.
