Yesterday, with my daughter, we visited Afripads, an organisation that makes and distributes reusable sanitary pads. My daughter is working on a school project (competence-based curriculum) where she seeks to learn and teach deprived girls how to make reusable pads. The project requires that they get a practical feel of the solution to a problem/challenge they’re working on, not just theory. Of course she learnt that it is more than it seemed to be, especially putting into consideration hygiene standards. But it was such a pleasure for me, as a girl’s father, being part of this conversation and learning about Afripads’ innovation, which I think could help many girls and women that can’t afford the other market options. Their school girl kit (pack) costs 17,000/, carrying a set that can be used for one year +! My daughter left elated about her project and what she learnt 😊. Thanks @AFRIpads
