Men and boys are key in understanding menstrual hygiene. They play a fundamental role in understanding the hustles girls go through during the week or periods and help to address the challenges and stigma around it. We can't end period poverty without men and boys in involvement

Creating healthier communities starts with making knowledge, dignity and safe spaces accessible to everyone.
Frank shares how @YCBNetwork is contributing to WASH and SRHR advocacy through different community led initiatives.
Beyond these initiatives, YCBN is also engaging men and boys as champions for SRHR, encouraging them to challenge harmful stigma, support open conversations and contribute to safer and more inclusive communities.
When communities work together, WASH and SRHR become more than programs. They become shared responsibilities.
Through advocacy, education, research and meaningful participation, we can create environments where young people are informed, supported and empowered to thrive.

When it rains, the water carries both silt and rubbish into these channels causing serious blockage.
Authorities need to strongly enforce laws against littering. Littering is destroying our environment and keeping it safe is a responsibility we all share.

Today we begin a New jounrney with members of @WezeshaGirls to Advance Girls Rights through SRHR Advocacy and Storytelling:
We are excited to introduce our new project focused on Advancing Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) Advocacy and Storytelling.
The project will create opportunities for adolescents and young people to build their knowledge, raise their voices and use storytelling to advocate for the issues that affect their lives.
We believe that when young people have the knowledge, confidence and safe spaces to speak up, they can become powerful advocates for change.
Through this initiative, we look forward to amplifying young voices, challenging stigma and strengthening advocacy for access to accurate SRHR information and services.
Every voice matters.
Every story can inspire change.
Every young person deserves to be heard.
