🩸A global movement is building to move menstrual health from the margins to the mainstream.
Across regions and sectors, governments, UN agencies, civil society, youth advocates and partners are coming together around a new Shared Agenda for Action on Menstrual Health.
Why? Because menstrual health is not only about hygiene products. It is deeply connected to education, health, WASH, gender equality, economic participation, climate resilience and human dignity. Yet despite progress, over 500 million women and girls still face unmet menstrual health needs worldwide.
The Shared Agenda aims to:
🔹 Increase political prioritization and investment
🔹 Strengthen accountability and evidence
🔹 Break stigma and harmful social norms
🔹 Elevate adolescent and youth voices
🔹 Build stronger cross-sector collaboration
This is a collective effort — and consultations are now underway across regions. We invite governments, practitioners, youth leaders, researchers, civil society and partners to help shape the agenda and drive meaningful action.
Menstrual health is not a side issue. It is a development priority.
