Menstrual hygiene kits

Hygiene kits provide dignity for Kokoda women

With the support of the Australian government’s Kokoda Initiative, the Seif Meri Mun project involves basic sewing training and the production of 500 kits each by Network Kokoda in Sogeri and the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) at Kokoda Station.

Sewing trainer and facilitator, Nina Boydell, said the project aims to assist women and girls in Papua New Guinea to better manage menstruation with dignity by supplying free reusable sanitary products to women in remote communities.
