Our events.
World Menstrual Hygiene Day 2024
The Small World hosted the district’s first-ever Menstrual Hygiene Session in early May 2024. Held in the district capital, Salleri, speakers at the event armed attendees with facts about periods, while we also provided reusable cloth pads and information booklets to dispel myths about periods.
Fifty girls from across castes, ethnic groups and villages in Solukhumbu came together to participate in the day-long event, as well as community leaders from the District and Ward offices, and local schools. Participants received T-shirts with slogans like, ‘let’s talk periods,’ ‘normalize periods,’ ‘flow with pride’ and ‘taboo breaker,’ which they donned during an awareness rally through the town.
