For many girls in rural Zambia, managing menstrual hygiene at school has long been a challenge, often leading to absenteeism and reduced academic performance. However, through World Vision Zambia’s Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) program, change is taking root. By training teachers and equipping students with essential hygiene knowledge, the program is creating a more inclusive and supportive learning environment, ensuring that no child is left behind due to preventable hygiene-related issues.

During World Water Day 2025, World Vision Zambia National Director Marc Nosbach has emphasised the urgent need for collective action to ensure children and their communities have access to clean and safe water. He highlights that while water is life, countless children across Zambia are still deprived of this basic necessity, affecting their health, education, and overall well-being.
