Women Information Network (WINET), recently joined other leading global development actors, philanthropists, and companies to call for increased action and investment to ensure that women and girls are no longer limited because of their periods.

Executive Director, Women Information Network (WINET) Mrs. Miriam Menkiti, stated this while addressing the students of Girls High School, Uwani Enugu, to mark this year’s Menstrual Hygiene Management.

The topic of Menstrual Hygiene Day is achieving increased attention, but a lot more action and investment is needed to ensure that women and girls are no longer kept from realizing their full potential because of their periods.

“By addressing the challenges in MHM”, she reiterated, “we have the opportunity not only to empower women and girls, but to accelerate the overall development of their families and communities and build the human capital of entire nations”.
