A health workshop titled ‘Ageing and Hormonal Health’ was conducted on 17th August 2024 for the women beneficiaries of the Women Literacy Project. The workshop was aimed to raise awareness regarding various physical and mental health issues due to aging and hormonal health.
A total of 15 women were present during the event which was led by Amics staff and interns. The workshop detailed the physical and mental issues that could arise due to aging. It also highlighted menopause and its effects while discussing women’s hormonal health. The participants also discussed the preventative measures one can take in order to manage these health problems. Since most beneficiaries are aged 40 and above, the workshop helped women to understand and be aware of the changes they will experience due to aging and menopause. Few also shared their experience of menopause and the ways they dealt with it. Overall, the session was informative and engaging. At the end of the session, a health and hygiene pack was distributed to each woman to help them stay clean and healthy.Since one of the 8 goals of Amics del Nepal focuses on the health and well-being of its beneficiaries, it aims to conduct such workshops in the coming days as well in order to help beneficiaries be aware and are able to maintain habits leading to healthy and loving lives.
This project is possible thanks to the support of all the members of Amics del Nepal and the collaborating partners:
