In a bid to promote girls’ education and menstrual hygiene, officials from the Listen Africa Foundation, in partnership with the Pachamama Project in the UK, have donated reusable sanitary pads to girls at Kantare Secondary School, Rwamucucu Seed School, and Kihorezo Primary School in Rukiga District. The initiative aims to reduce dropout rates among girls in rural areas who cannot afford menstrual hygiene products, ensuring they remain in school with dignity. 📸@JobApuuli.

Thank you @FinancialTimes for highlighting our work in Lebanon to tackle period poverty and end the menstrual stigma. “I don’t think any girl should miss out on the same education as her brothers simply because she has a period.” - @ellalambertnow ft.com/content/69fcd0…

When Priti Patel, Suella Braverman and Rishi Sunak ran with the Rwanda scheme. When Nigel Farage was given more publicity than the Lib Dem’s, Greens, SNP etc. during the election campaign… Racism has been normalised and disenfranchised people have been given a scapegoat.

Violence doesn’t come out of nowhere. These riots are over a decade in the making. When Theresa May sent vans round deprived areas of London with ads reading ‘go home’ in the hope of Daily Mail headlines. When Boris Johnson referred to Muslim women as letter boxes…

The right wing press should be held accountable for inciting hatred and violence. RT if you agree.

I keep thinking how 3 little girls were killed & more were hurt & traumatised, & instead of talking about their precious lives, we are being forced to focus on violent entitled white men burning cars & towns, who don’t give a shit about women’s & girls’ safety.

I cannot imagine what it feels like to be a British Muslim right now or black or brown in this country, witnessing the far right riots. Stay safe everyone.

This is absolutely terrifying. The insidious far right, anti immigrant rhetoric pedalled by the conservatives for so long for cheap votes is now playing out in action. Language is dangerous. Does anyone know what has happened to the man in the car?? #riots #hull

Very excited about this new partnership. Great to meet such a wonderful group who are using their creative skills to help end period poverty 🩸🧵

Yesterday we ran a reusable pad making workshop and hybrid talk with fellow Bristol-born @aardman (home to Wallace and Gromit and co 🤩) as they join our mission to end period poverty one reusable sanitary pad at a time with the launch of the first ever corporate Pacha club!

There simply cannot be a Rafah offensive. Appalled by this devastation. We need an immediate bilateral ceasefire now.

Period poverty is a particular issue in refugee camps during conflict. “When you hear the war sirens in the middle of the night and you grab a bag and grab anything you can get your hands on, who thinks to pack sanitary products?” said period poverty activist @ellalambertnow.

“In the way we have toilet rolls in every public bathroom, there should be free sanitary products.” @ellalambertnow.

This Wednesday, Global Citizen convened key decision-makers and experts including @HelenGrantMP, @micksheldrick, @erna_solberg, @ThokoPooley, and @PScotlandCSG at @UKParliament to discuss the intersection of girls’ education and health. Here’s what you need to know 👇 (Thread)

Our founder @ellalambertnow spoke in parliament on Wednesday about how fighting period poverty keeps girls in education.
