Interviews with Malawian girls who participated in Good Sisters Activity
- Q. How was the Good Sisters activity?
-
A. I feel honored to be a member of Good Sisters.
I have learnt how to protect myself from HIV and other STDs.
I also have learnt how to care for myself during the adolescent age and menstrual period, and realized the importance of school studies.
- Q. What are your expectations through Good Sisters Activities?
- A. I wanted to learn about more things while working as a member of Good Sisters, and also develop my capabilities to deal with and make decisions in various circumstances. I have become a more active and better girl than before.
- Q. Do you see any changes in yourself after learning about and using the cotton pads?
-
A. I have used the chitenje (traditional skirt in Africa) fabric for pads.
However the cotton menstrual pads I used through Good Sisters activity brought about an entire change in my life. I could make and use the pad easier than chitenje. The quality of my life has gotten much better.
