I aim to empower the local indigenous and non Indigenous adolescent girls in my country and their community members through “Campaign for Menstrual Hygiene " program so that the adolescent girls can live healthier lives and have more equal chances to reach their life potential. Women empowerment is an important subject for the Indigenous Minority communities in Chittagong Hill Tracts. Often lack of knowledge in Menstruation is causing or acting as an obstacle in women empowerment such as dropping out from schools because they are ashamed of speaking out about their abdominal pain and lack of access to hygiene products and water during their menstruation period. Through this program I and my team aim to promote awareness on menstruation, hygiene, sanitation ,sexual and reproductive health issues among adolescents girls through different educational sessions so that a positive attitude will come regarding sexual and reproductive health among them. Further, they will be able to express their difficulties to health workers and family, friends during the adolescent period without any hesitation because these issues are often culturally sensitive.

It all started in 2014 with our very first sale. Since that day, and every time a pink maharani shawl adorns your shoulders, you support this project and one adolescent girl from India is provided with knowledge to understand and tools to deal with her menstrual cycle. Our approach is holistic as we put the emphasis not only on the education and the use of hygiene products, but also on the awareness of this still wide spread taboo topic. We are very proud to know from the 2018 Sukhibhava Report that we have covered over 516 adolescent girls and our partnership with Sukhibhava keeps expanding!
Ethics Beyond the Plate presentation by Leigh-Chantelle at Bali Vegan FestivalLeigh-Chantelle
Leigh-Chantelle from Viva la Vegan! gives her Ethics Beyond the Plate presentation at the 2nd Bali Vegan Festival.
Sunday 9 October
Ubud, Bali, Indonesia
The blurb:
With the mainstream media watering down the meaning of veganism with it's dietary, fitness and weight-loss focus, is the vegan movement losing its core ethics? There are many reasons and benefits to go - and stay - vegan. Including the environment, labour rights, human rights, animal rights, ethics, feminism, and other intersectionality issues. How can we learn from other social justice movements to move forward in a more inclusive and intersectional way? If more people stay vegan long-term due to ethical reasons, how can we promote consciousness-raising, non-oppression, non-objectification, and anti-consumerism for and beyond the vegan lifestyle?
Find out more about how we can work together as vegans and activists to promote inclusivity, learn from other movements, and lead by example to promote compassion to ALL we encounter. Learn how to become a more effective activist and make these much-needed changes with Leigh-Chantelle's Ethics Beyond the Plate talk.

Feeding plate for a newborn with Cleft Palate.pptxSatvikaPrasad
A feeding plate is a prosthetic device used for newborns with a cleft palate to assist in feeding and improve nutrition intake. From a prosthodontic perspective, this plate acts as a barrier between the oral and nasal cavities, facilitating effective sucking and swallowing by providing a more normal anatomical structure. It helps to prevent milk from entering the nasal passage, thereby reducing the risk of aspiration and enhancing the infant's ability to feed efficiently. The feeding plate also aids in the development of the oral muscles and can contribute to better growth and weight gain. Its custom fabrication and proper fitting by a prosthodontist are crucial for ensuring comfort and functionality, as well as for minimizing potential complications. Early intervention with a feeding plate can significantly improve the quality of life for both the infant and the parents.
