The Hidden Struggles of Chad’s Schoolgirls
Many schoolgirls in Chad face significant challenges during their menstrual cycles due to a lack of access to basic sanitary products. Most families rely on reusable cloth pads, often shared among family members, which leaves the girls feeling embarrassed and isolated. As a result, they frequently skip physical education classes and avoid participating in any activities during this time.
In some cases, girls are caught off guard with nothing to use, leading to moments of distress and deep shame. Those from wealthier families may have access to disposable pads, a luxury that many girls envy but cannot afford.
The Need for Support
Despite these hardships, these girls dream of a better life and education. Providing access to basic sanitary products is not just about hygiene—it’s about restoring their dignity, confidence, and ability to thrive in their education.
