The Menstrual Health Community of Practice (CoP) was established in 2020 and aims to learn, share, and create knowledge on menstrual health that can be used to further include it into SRHR programmes and that contributes to it being an international agenda priority 🩸🩸
After scaling down due to funding constraints, the Menstrual Health CoP will once again commence with its first meeting in November, 2026. The goal? Creating a session on menstrual health during the Share-Net Annual Members’ Meeting in December.
The CoP currently is for Share-Net Netherlands members only and is open to accepting new members on a rolling basis. If you’re interested in joining or learning more, please reach out to us!
From 2021 till 2023 the CoP focused its efforts on the topic of menstrual health in the workplace. In 2023, they completed a small scale research on the topic of experiences of Menstrual Health in the Dutch Workplace in the Netherlands, and organised a dialogue with international experts which looked at the different types of menstrual health needs that different types of workplaces have.
