Empowering Women & Girls Through Sustainable Menstrual Care

Overview

At Eco Period, we believe that access to safe, sustainable, and affordable menstrual care is a fundamental right. Many women and girls in Vanuatu, particularly in rural communities, face limited access to menstrual products, leading to period poverty, school absences, and financial strain.

As part of our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) commitment, we are launching the Vanuatu Menstrual Health Initiative, providing reusable menstrual products to local women and girls. This initiative ensures long-term sustainability, helping to reduce financial burdens while promoting eco-friendly menstrual care solutions.

Key Goals of the Initiative

🌿 Combat Period Poverty – Provide women and girls in Efate with access to high-quality, reusable menstrual products.
🌍 Support Sustainability – Reduce reliance on disposable products, minimizing waste and promoting an eco-conscious lifestyle.
📚 Menstrual Education – Partner with local community leaders to provide education on menstrual health, product care, and hygiene.
🤝 Direct Community Impact – Build direct relationships with village leaders, ensuring donations reach those in need without third-party barriers.
