Period Power: Animated Menstrual Health Management (MHM) Clips

In collaboration with the Department of Basic Education and UNICEF South Africa, MIET AFRICA developed an animated video series on menstrual health and hygiene.  The engaging series were designed specifically for young people, to be used in classrooms and to be shared widely to create more awareness and knowledge about menstrual health.

MIET AFRICA, supported by the Sanlam Foundation, implemented a maths support programme in 15 primary and eight secondary schools from 2017 to 2022 in KwaZulu-Natal. A set of 12 videos covering key topics on number concept development (number sense) at Grade 4 level was developed as one of the outputs of the support programme.

The videos are available in English and isiZulu.
