Men Trained to Support Women's Menstrual Health in Benue

The Okaha Women and Children Development Organisation (OWACDO) in Benue State trained men from various professions to support women's menstrual and menopausal health. The initiative, named Voices for Change, aims to empower women with knowledge on menstrual health while addressing stigmas and misconceptions surrounding menstruation and menopause.

OWACDO's project seeks to enhance women's health, dignity, and rights by involving men in breaking taboos and shaping community perceptions. The training received positive feedback from participants and media outlets for its impact on promoting gender equality and public health awareness.
