TOGETHER, WE ARE CULTURE MAKERS
An introduction to the day
As professionals working with girls, young women & menstruators, it is crucially important to examine and understand our own experiences, beliefs, and potential shame or taboos surrounding menstrual cycles. This self-awareness plays a pivotal role in shaping our interactions with young people. By acknowledging and addressing our own attitudes, we create a more supportive and empowering environment for those we guide through this transformative journey.
If you are a professional committed to promoting menstrual cycle awareness, education and supporting menstrual well-being among individuals aged 8-24, the Cultivating Menstrual Cycle Awareness for Professional Workshop is your opportunity to gain valuable insights and tools. Join us in making a positive impact on the lives of young minds and fostering a healthy and empowered approach to menstrual education.
LET'S GATHER TOGETHER TO RECONNECT, HONOUR AND CELEBRATE OUR GROWING CHILDREN.
