      A large number of young girls and women in Nepal are deprived of sanitary products, proper information, safe and hygienic spaces. Still, period discrimination exists under different names like Chaupadi.In this context, we pursue to be the voice for those women and girls who feel voiceless. We seek for their menstrual dignity and equity in a period taboo-free society, shifting attitudes, behaviors, and individual practices.This movement aims to demystify and shift taboos and stigmas surrounding periods. Untold Period Stories is a Community for you to share, inspire and empower periods, the women that have them, and those that do not know enough about them. Share your story so our community transforms taboos into knowledge and period poverty into empowerment. Show less
