Mr. & Miss Esonga: Beauty with a purpose
“Menstruate with pride”
To help dismantle stigma and promote gender equality, it is important to engage boys in menstrual hygiene management (MHM).
Exactly this, we aim to do with this event – while having as much fun as possible.
This pageant involves schools nominating representatives to promote MHM awareness – both girls and boys. It encourages boys’ involvement in discussions traditionally dominated by women. You’re also welcome to just come, enjoy the show and a delicious beverage from the bar.
So, sign-up below and we look forward to seeing you !
