Kokoodzi

A sustainable change,

one pad at a time.

Our reusable menstrual pads, thoughtfully designed offer a safe, comfortable, and eco-friendly solution.

They are produced in Ghana to support a meaningful transformation.

Absorbent fabric

A layer made of bamboo, known for its natural absorbency, breathability, and antibacterial properties. This ensures lasting comfort and protection throughout the cycle.

Waterproof barrier

A layer of an eco-friendly PUL, known for its impermeable properties to avoid potential leaks.

Cultural celebration

We use colorful wax fabrics for the outside layer of our pads, to preserve traditions and offer a product that reflects Ghanaian heritage .

Local production

Each pad is handcrafted by skilled Ghanaian tailors, creating jobs and supporting the country's economy.

While we currently source our materials globally, we are committed to transition to Ghanaian bamboo fabrics when available.

This intention aligns with our broader mission for a sustainable change, one pad at a time.

A world where women and girls have access to affordable sanitary products

and can manage their menstrual cycles with dignity.

The MENSTRUAL HEALTH project:

One period at a time.

Period poverty is a neglected public health issue impacting the lives of countless women and girls in Ghana. It extends far beyond the lack of access to safe and hygienic menstrual products, impacting health, education, and economic opportunities.

 



Girls missing school due to their periods is a clear illustration of gender inequality, highlighting the importance of menstrual health. It's not just a biological reality, but also a foundation of women's health and a critical public health component.



The Menstrual Health project aims to tackle the root causes of period poverty and to challenge the gender inequalities it represents. Through a holistic approach focused on education, access to sustainable menstrual solutions and community engagement, we want to transform the communication around menstruation from a taboo subject to an open dialogue about health and equality.         



We believe that by addressing this fundamental issue, we can empower women and girls to fully participate in all aspects of life, laying a foundation for a brighter future where menstrual health is not a barrier but a right fully accessible to all. 



To ensure the effectiveness of our multidisciplinary approach, we've ran a pilot phase in Kotobabi community, in collaboration with a local NGO.
