VBD Sylhet District has launched a transformative initiative by introducing Sanitary Pad Stations in local schools a dedicated, safe, and accessible space where young girls can access menstrual hygiene products without fear or shame.

This impactful step not only addresses the lack of menstrual resources but also aims to:
    •    Promote menstrual hygiene and health education
    •    Reduce school absenteeism among girls during their periods
    •    Foster confidence, dignity, and open conversations around menstruation
    •    Break long-standing taboos and stigma attached to periods

By ensuring girls don’t have to choose between their health and their education, we’re paving the way for a more equitable, inclusive, and empowered future for all.

This initiative is a part of VBD’s ongoing commitment to gender equity, youth well-being, and community development.

Together, let’s continue creating safe spaces, one school at a time.
