Menstrual Hygiene Day 2026

A period-friendly world is a world in which menstruation is accepted as a normal fact of life and is no longer stigmatised. It is a world in which everyone is educated about menstruation from an early age.

Do you live in a period friendly home, community, school or world?

- Make a menstrual hygiene bracelet or add a digital one to your social media

Menstrual Hygiene Day - Global

Have you thought about what happens to the chips packet you threw out the car window or the lollipop stick you dropped on the ground and didn't pick up....

🌧️🚰 Only Rain Down the Drain

Did you know that stormwater drains are not connected to treatment systems? Everything that goes into them flows directly into our rivers and oceans.

That means litter, chemicals, and waste dumped into drains end up polluting the very waters we’re trying to protect. 🌊

As part of the campaign, we’re raising awareness about how everyday actions — from what we flush to what we throw in drains — have a direct impact on our environment.

🚽 Remember: Only flush the 3 P’s — P*e, Poo and (toilet) Paper
🌧️ And only rain belongs in the drain

Let’s work together to keep our waterways clean and protect our oceans for future generations 💙

Our Power, Our Planet is Earth Day 2026’s theme reflecting a fundamental truth: environmental progress doesn’t depend on any single administration or government.

It’s sustained by our own daily actions.

Do you use single use plastic products, throw a wipe napkin in the toilet, or let the water run when brushing your teeth or putting soap on your hands? These are all harmful actions on our Earth.

Let's try to pay more attention to our daily actions, save our planet and encourage our family and friends too!
