What is period poverty?
Period poverty is the lack of access to menstrual products, hygiene facilities, education, and resources. It affects millions of women, girls, and people who menstruate—often forcing them to choose between buying food or buying pads. This crisis is often invisible, but its impact is far-reaching.
