MH Day 2018: #NoMoreLimits – Empowering Women and Girls Through Good Menstrual Hygiene
Menstrual Hygiene Day (MH Day) brings together non-profits, government agencies, the private sector, the media, and individuals to promote Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM). WASH United organized the first MH Day in 2014 to raise awareness of the challenges women and girls worldwide face due to their menstruation and highlights solutions that address these challenges, including through media work.
The promotional headline for MH Day 2018 is "#NoMoreLimits – Empowering Women and Girls Through Good Menstrual Hygiene." To learn more, visit http://menstrualhygieneday.org or follow MH Day on Twitter: @MHDay28May.
