July 12th is internationally recognized as #MalalaDay honoring Malala, the youngest Nobel Peace Prize Laureate who championed education for young girls globally. ⁠ ⁠ “In far too many countries, girls aren’t allowed to go to class during their periods because they are deemed “unclean” or school buildings lack proper toilet facilities and menstrual hygiene products... Almost half the world’s population menstruates for an average of 40 years, so both girls and boys should be taught that periods are normal. Like so many things, the answer is education.” malala for on.assembly
