I needed to provide not only a "dipping structure" for the two vellum rings I made, about to be covered in wax. I also needed to open the "eyelets" of the vellum. Otherwise the wax would seal them shut and reduce the "mushroom gills" effect I was striving for.
As part of its support to the Government of Guinea in its fight against child malnutrition, the Government of Japan, through UNICEF, has funded the project: "Responding to the challenges of multiple crises on child malnutrition in Guinea through integrated nutrition and WASH interventions."
This project, with a budget of approximately 1.14 million US dollars (USD), aims to reduce mortality and child health problems associated with the worsening nutritional emergency in the Labé and Mamou regions of Guinea. It covers 13 communes in the Labé region and 12 communes in the Mamou region, providing interventions that combine nutrition with improved access to drinking water, hygiene and sanitation. This complementary approach strengthens institutional and community capacity for rapid, effective, and sustainable treatment and prevention of severe acute malnutrition.
"It is a great honor to inaugurate the water supply system at the Bantignel Health Center. Thanks to this joint project between Guinea, Japan and UNICEF, we have been able to meet an important need for basic human security in 25 communities in the Labé region. By improving the nutrition of the youngest children and access to drinking water, we are strengthening the capacity of these localities to be more resilient and provide a foundation for the population to thrive," said His Excellency Mr. KATO Ryuichi, Ambassador of Japan to Guinea.
In Guinea, approximately 350,000 children suffer from acute malnutrition, 100,000 of whom are severely malnourished. Poor water quality, lack of access to adequate sanitation and poor hygiene practices are responsible for many water-borne diseases that have a significant impact on children's health. A child who dies from diarrhea often has underlying malnutrition, making him or her more susceptible to this infection. Each episode of diarrhea also worsens this malnutrition. Diarrhea is a leading cause of malnutrition in children under five.
"Children need a healthy environment and enough quality food to grow and thrive," said Félix ACKEBO, UNICEF Representative in Guinea. "The water, hygiene and sanitation sector, by promoting access to a healthy environment and encouraging good hygiene practices, plays a critical role in ensuring good nutrition and health for children. The support of the Government of Japan to the Government of Guinea, through UNICEF, enables us to provide a strategic response to combat child malnutrition and improve access to water, hygiene and sanitation services for the population of Guinea".
Thanks to these interventions, approximately 164,700 people have benefited from nutritional support to date. This includes the screening of 66,459 children aged 0-59 months, the treatment of 2,379 severely malnourished children with nutritional inputs, and the multiple micronutrient supplementation of 10,140 children.
417 community actors were trained and 184,034 people were sensitized on good infant and young child feeding practices. Approximately 291,400 people were educated on hand washing and breastfeeding practices and supported to access water, hygiene and sanitation services. 100,000 people now live in a hygienic environment, and 2,500 people now have access to sanitary facilities, including a supply of drinking water to prevent infection. Finally, 2 schools with a total of 1,100 students, including 650 girls, now have sustainable access to drinking water.
Indirectly, at the end of the project, about 2 million people in Labé and Mamou will benefit from better coverage of nutritional interventions, whether curative or preventive, and improved access to drinking water and sanitation.

Pennsylvania Senators, state Representatives, and others gathered for a press event to support and advocate for Governor Shapiro’s proposal to fund period products in public schools through this year’s budget. Nearly 1 in 4 U.S. students cannot afford period products, threatening their ability to receive the education they deserve. Lawmakers and other Pennsylvania leaders and advocates joined in support of the proposal and highlighted why the legislature needs to include this proposal in the final budget.
In his second budget address as Governor, Governor Josh Shapiro took the time to propose a $3 million investment into public schools to provide period products at no cost to students. A big supporter of this proposal has been Pennsylvania’s First Lady, who stood in support at the press conference.
“Today, I was proud to stand with leaders from across our Commonwealth to bring attention to critical issues facing young women and girls in Pennsylvania,” said First Lady Lori Shapiro. “I've spent time listening to young women and girls in Pennsylvania who have been forced to miss school or other opportunities due to not having the menstrual products they need. We need to support and empower those girls — and that's why Josh included $3 million in this year's budget proposal to provide pads and tampons in schools at no cost to our students.”
“This $3 million investment – a fraction of a percentage of our total budget – is all it will take to provide period products in public school restrooms and make sure students can remain safe, healthy, and focused in class. I’m grateful to have a Governor who knows ‘period’ is not a bad word, and a First Lady who has brought menstrual equity to the forefront in Pennsylvania,” said Senator Maria Collett (D-12). “Together, we can get this program across the finish line and continue to advocate for the 2 in 5 menstruators who struggle to afford period products.”
As of April 18, 2024, 27 states and Washington D.C. have passed legislation to help students who menstruate have free access to period products while in school. Pennsylvania could be the next state to solve this problem for students.
"Every Pennsylvanian deserves access to the hygiene products they need to live healthy, rewarding lives. Governor Shapiro's proposal to provide period products free to every public school in Pennsylvania is uncontroversial and will have a significant impact on the lives of many of our students,” said Senator Judy Schwank (D-11). “We have garnered strong support for this proposal from a diverse coalition, and I'm confident we will secure this crucial investment in this year's budget."
Funding period products in schools is just the beginning when it comes to tackling menstrual equity in Pennsylvania. Senators Cappelletti and Collett have introduced Senate Bill 906, known as The Pennsylvania Menstrual Equity Act, a bill that will require Pennsylvania’s public agencies serving those who are young, low-income, homeless, or incarcerated to make these products available at no cost.
“As children and adolescences, it can be extraordinarily difficult to ask for help in meeting our needs – especially ones as stigmatized as menstrual hygiene. So, imagine the added challenge that many students face when their parents can’t afford the period products they need. Or if a student has a difficult relationship with their parent or guardian and doesn’t feel comfortable or safe when asking for the products they need,” said Senator Amanda Cappelletti (D-17). “We have the power to eliminate these challenges for our students here in Pennsylvania and ease the stress that threatens their ability to get their education to the fullest extent.”
Leaders and representatives of the Shapiro Administration were in attendance, including many state agency leaders. Pennsylvania Department of Human Services Secretary Dr. Valerie Arkoosh, Pennsylvania Department of Health Dr. And Department of Education Executive Deputy Secretary Angela Fitterer all attended and shared their support. “Thank you to First Lady Shapiro and thank you Governor Shapiro for having the courage to put these dollars into your budget,” said Secretary Arkoosh. “Here we are talking about this with the potential opportunity in the budget to correct something that’s been in need of correction, frankly, for many decades.”
Many speakers detailed the lengths at which students who do not have access to the products they need must go to when they have their periods, whether it be using socks, t-shirts, or other unsanitary materials. Dr. Bogen, Acting Secretary of Pennsylvania’s Department of Health, mentioned using these unsanitary solutions puts people at risk of contracting a host of health issues that could affect a student's health right away or in the future.
In today’s meeting of the House Education Committee, the committee passed House Bill 850, which would require our Department of Human Services to apply to the federal government if a waiver is made available to states to allow those receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) to use the two programs for menstrual hygiene products. Currently, these programs do not allow for the purchase of menstrual hygiene products, despite being a necessity. A related bill, House Bill 851, would create a grant program to provide eligible public-school entities with funding to acquire and distribute menstrual hygiene products at no expense to students. That bill has yet to move in committee.
Representative Darisha Parker (D-198), the prime sponsor on House Bill 851, spoke at the news conference, sharing, “When you talk about this lane of work, it is hard. It is very embarrassing that a woman like me, today, will be walking with a box of tampons to tell the Senate to pass House Bill 851.”
