"23 million girls tend to drop out of school owing to unavailability of period friendly infrastructure and existing taboos around menstruation" according to a report by DASRA. In India, where menstruation is often treated as a something that is never openly accepted or even spoken of, Rangeen Khidki wants to change the perception of menstruation and how one experiences it.
Rangeen Khidki advocates for gender equity for all persons in the society to live a life of dignity and experience menstruation without stigma, taboos and superstitions. Menstruation is often seen as a shameful and tabooed topic that often impacts a girl’s access to education and fair opportunities. Millions of girls tend to annually drop out of schools and the education system because of lack of conducive infrastructure. Menstruating girls are expected to follow food restrictions, sometimes expected to live and sleep separately from the rest of the family and are made to feel ashamed about a normal and healthy biological process. This often affects a young girl’s acess to quality education, hampers her self confidence while growing up thus limiting her growth process and the we ought to now look at ways where we make menstruation a normal process.
Our key issue here is to understand how Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights(SRHR) and more specifically normal biological process like menstruation cannot be viewed in isolation without understanding how gender, sexuality, class, caste, religion, ethnicity, disability and mental health impacts it. Therefore, our initiative tries to look at menstruation beyond the ‘hygiene’ paradigm and delves deeper in to how menstruation exists in intersection with one’s social and economic identity, gender and sexuality
We are proposing to conduct interactive menstrual education sessions with 3 different groups:
What these sessions cover:
Our Impact is two fold:
Through our program we are contributing in ending the cycle of period povery and school dropouts where school teachers, parents and young girls are made aware of menstruation as a natural process which leads to destigmatization leads to schools taking more responsibility to make schools period-friendly resulting in better attendance in schools, increased participation in daily activities in schools ad ultimately impacting the current as well as future generation as girls turn into mothers, friends, peers & inform the next generation & start advocating for themselves.
