Support Menstrual Hygiene for 5000 Nepali Girls
Looking at the different Nepali words used to describe menstruation it can be said that having your period is still not accepted as a regular biological process in Nepal. Besides 'mahinawari' (what comes every month), the words 'para sarnu' (to stay away) and 'chhui hunu' (untouchable) are used to refer to menstruation. By conducting a program in high schools on Menstrual Hygiene Management ICA Nepal would like school girls to manage their period with dignity and without discomfort or fear.
