Abstract
Global Communities, an international non-profit organization that works closely with communities worldwide to sustainably improve the lives and livelihoods of the vulnerable, is implementing WASH 4 Health in Ghana. As part of the WASH 4 Health program, Global Communities partnered with Be Girl, a mission-driven US-based social enterprise that creates innovative, reusable menstrual protection products and age-appropriate menstrual education methodologies, to implement a six-month pilot project and survey (January through June 2018) and explore the effects of menstrual health and hygiene (MHH) interventions for girls in urban and rural Ghanaian communities.
