Digni-Period: A Journey Towards Menstrual Dignity
Every girl deserves the knowledge, support, and confidence to manage her menstruation with dignity.
This belief inspired Digni-Period: Empowering Girls to Manage Menstruation with Dignity, a project implemented by DigniPads in schools and communities in Juba, South Sudan, between June and August 2026.
Through menstrual health education, practical learning, and community engagement, we created opportunities for girls and young women to learn about their menstrual health, challenge misconceptions, and build confidence in managing their periods. We also engaged boys and reached girls with disabilities, recognising that menstrual dignity must include everyone.
The project directly reached 543 people, including more than 20 girls with disabilities.
Beyond the numbers, Digni-Period strengthened our commitment to making menstrual health information more accessible, inclusive, and responsive to the realities of the communities we serve.
Over the coming weeks, we will share the projectโs results, the stories behind the work, the lessons we learned, and how this journey is informing the next chapter of DigniPads.
Because menstrual dignity begins with knowledge, inclusion, and the right support.
