The Africa Schools Sanitation Foundation says the lack of access to quality, hygienic, medically approved menstrual towels by
milions of women and girls across the world, particularly in Africa including Ghana are alarming.
The Foundation is also against taxes on sanitary products.
It is the view of the Foundation that it is shameful for any girl to go through
challenges in accessing menstrual towels, quality detergents and toiletries during
that naturally crucial period where the beauty of nature is displayed.
It has therefore called on the government to remove taxes on sanitary products.
