WCWSA

Kutoka Zanzibar hadi Scotland, tunaziba pengo ili kumaliza umaskini wa hedhi! 🌍✨

Tunajivunia kazi kubwa inayofanywa na taasisi ya Women and ChildrenWelfareSupportAssociation (WCWSA). Kwa kuunganisha uzoefu wa jamii za Zanzibar na mfumo wa Scotland wa “bure kwa wote”, tunaunda harakati ya kimataifa kwa ajili ya heshima ya hedhi.

Je, ni vipi tunaleta mabadiliko?

📍 Zanzibar: WCWSA iko mstari wa mbele kusambaza vifaa vya hedhi, kuboresha usafi wa mazingira mashuleni, na kuhakikisha hakuna msichana anayekosa masomo kwa sababu ya hedhi.

📍 Scotland: Tunapata msukumo kutoka nchi ya kwanza kufanya bidhaa za hedhi kuwa bure, na kutumia uzoefu wao kuvunja miiko na kusukuma mabadiliko ya sera.

📍 Pamoja: Tunashirikiana kubadilishana mbinu bora, zana za elimu, na kuamini kuwa bidhaa za hedhi ni haki ya msingi, si anasa.

Umaskini wa hedhi hauna mipaka — na wala dhamira yetu ya kuumaliza haina mipaka. Tuendelee na mazungumzo! ❤️

On the 7th of April, we had our second Menstrual Health Education Workshop at the Parkhead Hub.

When girls have the right information, they stay in school, stay active, and stay unstoppable. So proud of the girls for showing up and speaking up!

Waziri wa Maendeleo ya Jamii, Jinsia, Wazee na Watoto mhe Anna Athanas Paul amewataka wanafunzi wa Skuli ya Jendele kuendelea kujilinda na kujitunza ili waweze kujikinga na vitendo vya ukatili na Udhalilishaji wa kijinsia.

Mhe Anna ameliyasema hayo wakati akigawa taulo za k**e za kufua kutoka katika kampun ya safe Pad kwa wanafunzi wa Skuli ya Jendele wilaya ya kati mkoa wa kusini Ungujà.

Mhe Anna pia amewataka wanafunzi hao kusoma kwa bidii ili waweze kuwa viongozi bora kwa taifa la baadae.

Jana mapema taasisi yetu ya ikishirikiana na wadau wetu wazalishaji wa taulo za k**e/pedi za kufua za SafePad walitembelea skuli ya Jendele Secondary wakiambatana na Mheshimiwa Waziri wa Wizara Mh. Anna Athanas Paul.

Mheshimiwa Waziri na wageni wetu wakiambatana na timu ya WCWSA waliweza kupata fursa ya kutumia muda wao na wanafunzi 100 wa skuli ya Jendele.

Wanafunzi wa k**e 100 hao waliweza pia kupatiwa taulo za k**e za kufua na baadhi ya vitendea kazi vya kuwasaidia wanapokuwa shuleni.

Shukrani za dhati kwa wageni wetu hususani bi na familia yake kwa kuwezesha misaada hiyo kufikia shule ya Jendele na shukrani kwa serikali ya Mapinduzi Zanzibar kwa kuunga mkono jitihada hizi za kumsaidia mtoto wa k**e abaki shuleni.

Yesterday, WCWSA movement was introduced in Scotland, Glasgow.

Our first Menstrual Health Education Workshop was all about our organization introction, what is, how to use Period products safely and give an overview on Menstrual Health conditions that women and girls face.

We also discussed about how to manage and other pain and how to exercise in a way that works in your body.

There is a widespread misconception that is just a lack of access to , but is more than this.

is also a lack of positive menstrul education that has sustained menstrual taboos. Lack of menstrual education can also lead to healthy complications for girls. This is why we live no stone unturned in our organization. While increasing access to , we also increase access to positive menstrual education for all, including boys.

You can always be part of the change by partnering and helping us to end in Zanzibar schools.
