Lack of knowledge about periods can lead to harmful beliefs and discrimination. It can also prevent girls from participating in regular childhood activities. Young girls are denied the opportunity to learn about periods and develop healthy behaviors due to stigma, taboos, and myths. Girls Only was created to make it free, fun, easy, and comfortable teaching young school girls about periods and puberty.
Talking about periods should never be boring. To effectively teach periods to young schoolgirls, we have to use mediums they find much more appealing Ñ Comic Books!
This edition of the Girls Only comic series tells the story of a 12-year old African schoolgirl Amanda, who just got her first period. The comic series takes us on young AmandaÕs journey to better understanding periods and puberty.
