As a non-profit organisation, Public Health en Afrique (PHA) prides itself in working towards achieving sustainable, effective public health interventions at the grassroots level. As an organisation, we strive to achieve PHA’s mission of ‘Putting Africa First’ in all programs
and public health interventions.

The SOS MENHEMA program aims to address period poverty and promote menstrual health awareness among young women and girls, particularly in underserved, remote communities.
It will provide sustainable, reusable menstrual products to participants, empowering them with menstrual health education, environmental awareness, and community support.

The program will foster a supportive, stigma-free environment around menstrual health. SOS MENHEMA will contribute to improved health outcomes, gender equality in education, and sustainable menstrual product use.

The above-chosen project name, “SOS”,- evokes the need for an emergency.
“Menhema”- our shortened abbreviation for the term menstrual hygiene management.

Thus, our project name is SOS-MENHEMA.
