From campaigning and capacity-building to cultivating strategic partnerships, our advocacy efforts are critical to shifting the menstrual health space in a way that stands the test of time. One of our main advocacy initiatives in 2023 was the Period Positive Workplace Campaign (PPW). This initiative advances menstrual equality at work by galvanizing private sector support and encouraging companies to become PPWs that 1) Provide period products in or near workplace bathrooms 2) Meet WHO's global water, sanitation and hygiene standards. 3) Inform employees via a formal notice that period products are and will continue to be provided. We have 149 PPW certified workplaces reaching 145,425 employees globally. Another example is the development and roll out of our Menstrual Health Country Snapshots. Informed by menstrual health experts, these reports examine the status of individual countries' MH policies, rights and challenges and provide a significant resource for menstrual health data and information.Education:Days for Girls menstrual health education aims to improve access to comprehensive, timely and age-appropriate menstrual health education. While others in the MH field focus exclusively on girls, DfG brings tailored, culturally specific education both to women and girls and boys and men-who are key allies for change. By taking a community approach, DfG establishes long-lasting allies and environments of menstrual health support. DfG education: 1. Increases knowledge of puberty, menstruation and reproduction (females and males)2. Increases confidence in managing menstruation (females)3. Increases confidence in discussing puberty and menstruation with others (females and males)4. creates positive shifts in attitudes surrounding puberty and menstruation (females and males, including decreased shame and embarrassment)5. creates positive Positive shifts in menstrual experiences after receiving a DfG washable pad (females)DfG menstrual health education curricula is delivered as stand alone activity and alongside the distribution of DfG Washable Pad Kits.

DfG menstrual health curricula consists of eight modules of sexual and reproductive health topics covering: hygiene, puberty, anatomy, the menstrual cycle, reproduction, self-defense, human trafficking and DfG Kit care. Meanwhile, we include men and boys in our community outreach through our Men Who Know health curriculum. This provides them with vital health information, including about menstruation, and encourages them to be allies and champions of change in their own communities; shifting the narrative from shame and embarrassment to one of pride and strength. In 2023, DfG reached 409,987 people with menstrual health education.MLE:To measure the effectiveness and impact of our programs DfG conducts Monitoring, Learning and Evaluation of both outputs and outcomes.
