About us
Who We Are
Period Talk Uganda (PTU) is an award winning, youth led organisation advancing menstrual equity through inclusive education, sustainable solutions, research, advocacy and community led action.
Our work is driven by the understanding that menstrual equity extends beyond access to menstrual products. It includes access to accurate information, supportive environments, inclusive policies, sustainable solutions and communities where menstruation can be discussed openly without fear or stigma.
By working collaboratively with schools, communities, institutions, policymakers and development partners, we are helping shape a future where every girl and woman has the knowledge, confidence and support needed to manage menstruation safely and with dignity.
