Here’s something most women in Australia never have to think about. Getting your period.

In many remote communities across Papua New Guinea, there are no sanitary products, no menstrual health education, and no support systems for girls when their period arrives. So they stay home from school.

One day becomes two. Two becomes a week. A week becomes a pattern. And before long, school just… stops.

This is period poverty — and it’s not a small problem. It’s a generational one.

Stay tuned, we’ll show you what we’re doing about it. 👇

You’ve probably never heard of us. 👋



We’re Wantaim PNG — an Australian registered NFP working alongside women and girls in Papua New Guinea to create lasting, community-led change.



Since 2017, our Hamamas Meri (Happy Women and Girls) program has been quietly doing big things in some of PNG’s most remote communities

.

This EOFY, we’re pulling back the curtain. Follow along this week — we think you’ll be glad you did. 🌿
