Hi everyone, Welcome!
I am Claire Igwe. I would like to welcome everyone joining us to this tweet chat.
Our conversation today is a warm-up to the PAD PROJECT, an outreach planned by FIGURE (Feminist Inspiring Gender Unity, Respect and Equality)
In early March last year, the FIGURE family reached out to young girls in Ile-Ife with sanitary pads, some valuable sex education and smiles😇.
It would be a thrill to do this again this year, with your support of course.
We would be having @afrika_sisi (founder and facilitator of FIGURE) as our guest for this chat
We would be hitting a very pressing but commonly overlooked topic today; Sexual Harassment and Assault of Underage Girls in Secondary Schools.
So, we would get right on to the chat.
Please feel free to jump in with your contributions and retweet.
