The Girls to Women with Ease Foundation (G2W) convened its annual symposium on Saturday, November 23, 2024, at Queen’s School, Apata, Ibadan.
The event brought together girls from various secondary schools to emphasize the importance of using clean and appropriate menstrual products and maintaining proper hygiene during menstruation.
Quality Sanitary towels were also distributed to all students in attendance.
We had guest speakers such as Dr Chisom Fajimi (Deputy Director Medicals, Oyo state hospital Management Board) and Mrs Bode Oguntoke (Assistant Director Nursing, Public Health, UCH). The occasional was also graced by other special guests.
In addition to the discussions, the symposium featured a debate on the topic, “Are eco-friendly products more sustainable than traditional menstrual products?”
Liberty Academy, Ibadan, emerged as the winner, receiving a cash prize of ₦50,000. Queen’s School, Ibadan, secured the second position with a cash prize of ₦25,000.
We are grateful to all our partners, sponsors, guest speakers, participants from various schools, and well wishers for making the program a success.
