Without access to safe, hygienic toilet facilities, many girls around the world do not go to school when they are menstruating.
To avoid missing school some girls hide used cloths in their pockets while others do not eat or drink during the day, making it impossible to learn effectively and leading to bowel and bladder problems later in life. Girls who change in the open, away from school, run the risk of sexual harassment.
Girls need a toilet space which is separate from boys – or they will not feel safe, they will avoid school and their education will suffer.
D.E.B Primary School in Western Kenya’s Bungoma County has over 1,000 disadvantaged students – orphans or from vulnerable families. Its toilet facilities were woefully inadequate and a number of toilets had to be closed due to a lack of resources and heavy rains. While overcrowding of the remaining toilets raised health and hygiene issues.
With the generous support of St. James’s Place Charitable Foundation, Ace Africa constructed two new toilet blocks at the school. One was for girls-only, with two latrines, a separate washing room, two handwashing stations and an incinerator to dispose of sanitary products.
As part of the programme 30 of the most vulnerable girls at the school received a year’s supply of sanitary towels. There were also sessions by specially trained teachers on sexual health, rights, good hygiene and nutrition. A new boys block was built with handwashing stations, ensuring the girls toilet stayed exactly that.
The girls of D.E.B primary now have a safe and hygienic space to manage their menstrual hygiene. The project assured female students could attend safely, with dignity, and no longer miss vital days of school every month.
So how to engage for other students

DeleteNilimkuta mke wangu akinidanganya baada ya kugundua jumbe kati yake na mpenzi wake wa zamani kwenye simu yake. Nilihuzunika sana kwa sababu sikuweza kuelewa nilichofanya ili kustahili hilo. Nilipomkabili kuhusu hilo, alikasirika na kusema alitaka talaka.
DeleteNilimpenda sana, na sikuweza kuvumilia wazo la kumpoteza mke wangu na watoto kwa mwanaume mwingine. Kisha nikajulishwa kwa mtu aliyedai kusaidia kufufua mapenzi katika ndoa zenye matatizo.
Saa chache baada ya Dkt. Dawn kusema amekamilisha uchawi, mke wangu alinipigia simu nilipokuwa kazini, akiniomba nimsamehe na kusema anaomba msamaha kwa kutaka kuondoka kwenye ndoa yetu.
Nilishtuka kabisa. Machozi yalinitoka mara moja kwa sababu niliamini kweli kwamba nilikuwa nimepoteza familia ambayo nilikuwa nimejitahidi sana kuijenga.

Sikuwahi kuamini kitu kama hiki kingeweza kunitokea hadi ndoa yangu ilipokaribia kuisha kabisa.
ReplyDeleteMume wangu alibadilika ghafla. Mwanaume ambaye hapo awali alinipenda na kunijali akawa baridi, asiyejali, na mwenye hasira bila sababu. Aliacha kuonyesha nia katika ndoa yetu, akaniepuka kabisa, na hatimaye akaniomba talaka. Nilivunjika moyo kwa sababu nilimpenda mume wangu kwa moyo wangu wote.
Mambo yalizidi kuwa mabaya aliponizuia kila mahali — WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram — kana kwamba sijawahi kuwepo. Nililia kila usiku nikijiuliza nilifanya nini kibaya.
Siku moja, rafiki wa karibu alinitembelea na kunitambulisha kwa mtu wa kiroho anayeitwa Dkt. Dawn. Kwa kweli, mwanzoni nilikuwa na shaka, lakini niliamua kumweleza kila kitu kwa sababu sikuwa na chochote cha kupoteza.
Dkt. Dawn alinisomea mambo ya kiroho, na nilishtuka. Alifichua siri kuhusu ndoa yangu na maisha yangu binafsi ambayo hakuna mtu aliyejua. Kila kitu alichosema kilikuwa sahihi 100%. Kisha akafichua kwamba mwanamke mwingine alikuwa amemloga mume wangu. Mwanamke huyu alikuwa akimtembelea mara nyingi, na kwa upumbavu niliamini ilikuwa kuhusu kazi tu.
Dkt. Dawn alinisaidia kuvunja uchawi na akafanya ibada yenye nguvu ya kurejesha upendo kwa ndoa yangu.
Kwa mshangao wangu mkubwa, muda mfupi tu baadaye, mume wangu alinifungulia kizuizi mwenyewe na kuanza kunipigia simu na kunitumia ujumbe mwingi, akiniomba nimsamehe na nirudi nyumbani. Mwanzoni nilimpuuza kwa sababu ya maumivu aliyonisababishia, lakini hatimaye alirudi nyumbani akiwa na zawadi na machozi machoni mwake akiomba nafasi nyingine.
Leo, ndoa yetu ni imara zaidi, yenye furaha zaidi, na yenye amani zaidi kuliko hapo awali. Mapenzi kati yetu yanahisi upya kabisa.
Kana kwamba hiyo haitoshi, Dkt. Dawn baadaye alinisaidia na ibada ya ujauzito kwa sababu tulikuwa tumejitahidi kwa miaka mingi kupata watoto. Ndani ya wiki 8, nilipata mimba kiasili, na leo tumebarikiwa na wavulana wawili wazuri wenye afya njema.
Nitaendelea kushukuru milele.
