Providing Primary Healthcare & Menstrual Hygiene to Protect Slum women from Transferable Diseases.

Summary:

Saheli, translating to "friend," embodies a project dedicated to fostering a supportive environment where women can openly discuss their health, hygiene, and safety concerns. This initiative aims to break the taboo surrounding menstruation, STDs, and other women's health issues by building strong, non-hierarchical family structures and community networks. Ladli Foundation's Saheli project collaborates with local women volunteers to provide free medical check-ups, distribute menstrual hygiene kits, and conduct awareness camps to empower women and girls.

Challenges:

Taboos and societal norms make it difficult for women to openly discuss their health issues, leading to ignorance and neglect of crucial health aspects, such as menstruation, STDs, and anemia.
