For more than a decade, Share the Dignity has been advocating for systemic change to ensure menstrual equity for all.

**MENSTRUAL EQUITY IS MORE THAN ENDING PERIOD POVERTY**

As well as removing barriers to accessing period products we are also about ensuring menstrual education and eradicating the shame and stigma surrounding periods.

Through our initiatives we advocate for better health outcomes for women, girls and anyone who menstruates. What started initially as a desire to provide period products to those in need has grown to be an organisation that has worked hard to create meaningful change in Australia including:

ADVOCATING for better health outcomes.

FACILITATING access to period products.

GATHERING crucial data.

PROMOTING sustainable options.

CREATING educational resources.

PERIODS & DISABILITY

Periods shouldn’t stop anyone from moving their body, playing sport or feeling like they belong.

If you’re a person with disability who has periods, this is for you.

Together with Victoria University, we’ve launched a national survey (co-designed with women with disability) to better understand how periods impact participation in sport and physical activity.

We already know the barriers are real. Our research found 78% of people with disability or a chronic condition have struggled to afford period products. Now it’s time to listen deeper and work together to change that.

If you’re aged 15+ and menstruate, your lived experience living with a disability matters whether you’re active, want to be, or feel shut out altogether.

The survey is open until March 27.
