KARAMBI COMPLETES CONSTRUCTION OF WASHROOM FOR GIRLS.

planning on completion of washroom








Most schools in Rwenzori region do not have washrooms for girl children to use for changing during their menstruation periods. When RIC-NET visited Karambi primary school the case was different. The school had an incomplete washroom though it was not in use. The incomplete washroom was started with support from PTA but was not completed due to lack of funds. 





The school requested for support from RIC-NET which welcomed the idea of finishing the incomplete building to enable girl children at the school to have a proper place for handling their menstrual periods which will enable them attend regularly and stay in school.


This support gave relief to the girls who had always suffered a challenge of lack of privacy,poor sanitation and hygiene during menstruation while at school. The senior woman teacher Miss Eva was heard saying at least her work as senior woman teacher will be eased by completion of the washroom.
