Last spring, PES introduced 300 washable, reusable feminine hygiene sanitary pads to community girls and women in three of our school's villages. A follow up interest survey revealed the girls' and womens' desire to learn how to sew their own and bring them to market.
PES and Korbel School of International Studies, University of Denver interns have developed:
- A girls' feminine hygiene sanitary and HIV vocational class at Ayak Anguei Girls Primary School
- A womens' vocational feminine hygiene pad production tailoring class in the village of Pagook
