For Health Development Initiative that educate and empower the community on health, raising awareness on the need for women to easily access pads among responsible parties.

Isabella Akaliza, founder of Period Poverty initiative that aims at supporting school girls to access sanitary pads, thinks there is a lot that can be done if "menstrual hygiene is given the priority it deserves."

For Non-Government Organizations, they could equip communities with the resources to produce local products

More plans in the pipeline

In regards to period poverty, Akaliza's initiative has started a new social media campaign dubbed Safe to Bleed that aims at advocating for the use of reusable pads because of their affordability, socio-economic impact, sustainability, and how they are a better alternative for the environment.

More initiatives such as IMatter initiative have stepped up to confront period poverty by supporting women with free pads.

IMatter initiative has collected 3,000 sanitary pads and is expecting 2000 more which will all be donated.
