1.0. PROJECT SUMMARY:
The girls hope education project is being implemented by APPCO with support from GlobalGiving targeting saving 6,800 vulnerable girls from dropping out of school through the provision of scholastic materials and training on menstrual hygiene and management, provision of psychosocial support and creating socio economic opportunities for girls to provide other school and home basic needs.
APPCO in this reporting period identified the most vulnerable girls in the target communities with the help of local council leaders considering those with disability impairments, orphans, child mothers, exposed to GBV, GBV victims, single mothers, pregnant teenagers, school drop outs due to lack of fees and girls from poor family back ground. The identified girls suggested to be supported with specific skills i.e., tailoring, hair dressing, bakery and liquid soap making which the project supported to train girls including making of reusable pads using locally available resources so as to address period poverty among vulnerable adolescent girls.
