Lucy Misi, a member of a mothers support group in a small village in Mchinji, Malawi, was inspired by a radio program on Mudzi Wathu, her community station, about advocacy. She said her local school needed a changing room for girls. So Misi and her group sought contributions to build one. It was completed in January 2024. “I got encouraged by our radio programs that we should support our schools by mobilizing the community to build toilets and changing rooms. We chose to start with a changing room.” Her group also provides female students with free reusable sanitary pads.
