In this eye-opening podcast, we talk with social entrepreneur, Soumya Dabriwal, Co-Founder, Project Baala, about the harsh realities faced by young girls and women in India and Africa when it comes to menstruation. Soumya shares how, during her time volunteering in these countries, she discovered that many girls were missing school for several days each month because they lacked access to menstrual hygiene products. In some cases, they were even forced to use unsanitary options that could lead to infection or worse. This shocking revelation inspired the creation of Project Balaa, which aims to provide sustainable menstrual hygiene solutions to over 500,000 women in developing and underdeveloped communities. Tune in to this podcast to hear how Soumya and her team are making a real difference in the lives of women who face such difficulties every day.
