I’m going to need the #LoveisBlind team to start doing psych evaluations because I can’t believe what I just watched. 😩

In case you weren’t aware of the importance of your vote next week, issues like GBV are 100% on the ballot. I say this because things like streetlights & pavements can mean the difference between life or death (in a literal sense).
See this explainer that was shared with me:
It really does change with age. 😩
This month my period was suspicious. I had little cramping, my flow was one day heavy, the rest was medium/light. But the back pain & flu I experienced???

It’s been a year since I started this petition, and we still don’t have menstrual leave or the #MenstrualHealthRightsBill implemented yet.
Sign the petition, share it, and keep showing up until this happens in our lifetime.

The @CHR_HumanRights, @UPTuks, convened a side event on the margins of the 48th Ordinary Session of the ACERWC, exploring how its mechanisms can advance universal access to child WASH and menstrual hygiene in Africa.
Prof. Nkatha Murungi stressed that menstrual health is a human rights issue, not charity, calling for dignity, privacy and adequate facilities for all girls.
Hon. Wael Abdel-Razek, ACERWC Special Rapporteur on Health, outlined mechanisms for accountability, including state reporting, communications procedures and special rapporteurs, to advance children’s rights to water, sanitation and hygiene.
A panel featuring Blessing Makutari, Candice Chirwa, Hope Mokadi and Tracey Malawana connected legal frameworks with lived experiences, advocacy and policy reform.
Prof. Murungi closed by emphasising the need for culturally sensitive approaches that address stigma and advance menstrual dignity across Africa.
