It is with profound sadness that AFRIpads announces the untimely passing of our colleague, Geofrey Businge.

Geofrey was part of the AFRIpads family for seven years, during which he made tremendous contributions to our organisation. He was also a male champion who helped advance conversations around menstrual health and supported our work toward greater inclusion, particularly by engaging men in menstrual health.

His passing leaves a void within our organisation and among all those who had the privilege of working alongside him. His contribution, commitment and the memories we shared will remain part of our story.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to his family, friends and loved ones. We stand with them during this difficult time and extend our deepest sympathies.

May His Soul Rest in Eternal Peace.

Did you know that only 39% of schools worldwide provide menstrual health education? (UNICEF, 2024)

Every girl and woman deserves accurate information about her menstrual health.

The AFRIpads Menstrual Health Education Toolkit helps girls and women understand their periods, challenge menstrual myths and taboos, and build awareness of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).

We believe that menstrual health education is key to empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their bodies and health.

Want to bring menstrual health education to your community?

AFRIpads joined the Danish Embassy Uganda, UNFPA Uganda, SAY+ Project implementing partners and WomenUganda2025+ campaign champions, cartoonist Dr Jimmy Spire Ssentongo and youth leader Don Zane Muwanguzi, for a visit to Alere Secondary School in Adjumani’s refugee settlement.

We distributed sanitary pads to girls and hygiene packs to boys, and called on district leaders and stakeholders to support the campaign by prioritising menstrual health and creating supportive environments that help them stay in school. @DKinUganda @SpireJim @NBSBreakingNews @UNFPAUganda
