A partnership promoting menstruation hygiene between CPL Group and Queenpads PNG Limited has reached the East Sepik province this month.
As part of the 48th Independence Anniversary celebrations the team embarked on a comprehensive outreach program and visited secondary schools in the Wewak Urban areas.
This outreach initiative’s intention is to break barriers surrounding the importance of feminine hygiene and health. To date, this outreach initiative has positively impacted over 1,500 participants, spanning across both genders.
Queenpads are reusable and have been sold at selected City Pharmacy outlets nationwide for more than five years now.
The awareness campaigns that aims to educate women and young girls on menstrual health cover critical topics, such as hygiene, health, and the efficient utilization of both reusable and disposable menstrual pads.
The partnership with Queenpads PNG Limited has seen CPL Foundation Inc serve an important role in sponsoring this awareness, which is reaching the broader community, including men, about the importance of open dialogue and proper practices in menstrual health hygiene.
The results have been remarkable, as the program has been successful in meeting the needs of women and girls concerning menstrual hygiene.
The program’s target demographic includes students, working individuals, and adult community members.
This initiative demonstrates CPL Foundation’s enduring commitment to the betterment of women’s and girls’ lives across Papua New Guinea.
