Menstrual discrimination affects millions of women and girls through social stigma, economic barriers, inadequate facilities, and poor education. Men can help fight this issue by learning about menstruation, supporting policies for better access to menstrual products, and creating supportive environments at work and school. By challenging negative language and behaviors and joining community efforts, men can help normalize menstruation and reduce stigma. Therefore, in this episode of Gulabi Sambad, we have addressed the importance of men's engagement in breaking barriers related to menstruation. We have two guests, a father-daughter duo, Mansuram Tharu, a 'Buwa Samuha' member supported by Plan International Nepal, and his daughter Namrata Tharu.
