SuPER - Sustainable Period 2
Project title: Sustainable Period 2
This project is supported by the Visegrad Fund.
Project ID: 22410022
Implementation period: June 1, 2024 – September 15, 2025
Reusable menstrual products are an environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and health-conscious alternative. It is especially important that young women living in the V4 countries and Ukraine give preference to these options. Due to recent regulatory changes and disruptions in the supply chain, more and more people are seeking long-lasting and sustainable solutions instead of disposable products. The goal of the SuPer project is to break the social taboos surrounding menstruation and to introduce new, eco-conscious methods for menstrual care.
As part of the project, comprehensive and informative educational materials will be developed about menstrual products, with a special focus on the advantages of reusable items and the risks associated with disposable ones. These materials will primarily support teachers and professionals working with youth in their educational work. The completed teaching package will be presented at workshops in each participating country to support the education of the 12–25 age group through professional development.
Additionally, an informational publication will be created for the general public, clearly explaining why it is beneficial to choose sustainable menstrual products in the long term, what disadvantages disposable alternatives may carry, and where products manufactured and distributed in the V4 region can be obtained. The messages of the project will be promoted through a targeted social media campaign, which aims not only to raise awareness but also to dismantle the social taboos surrounding menstruation.
