Namutula Sindila, Wendy Musonda and Agness Tambulukani are formidable warriors in the fight against period poverty.

Period poverty is a lack of access to menstrual products, education, hygiene facilities, waste management, or a combination of these. It affects an estimated 500 million people worldwide and has a direct effect on how many women do not have access to education for an accumulative 3 months out of the year due to their period.

Think about it a girl misses 3 months of school every year and yet is expected to perform at the same level as a boy.

We have to talk about how to eradicate period poverty.

The world has advanced so quickly. However, education in Africa is not keeping up at the same pace. Be it the curriculum content, teaching methods or stakeholders commitment, there is an urgency to adapt to the times. Furthermore, conversations around Education have only focused on the traditional models. Until now.

The Educated Africana, hosted by Tebogo Kangote III brings together diverse voices to have in depth discussions about Education in Africa.
