About the Project

KnowBody is a social initiative that is dedicated towards addressing the persistent silence and stigma that continues to surround topics of menstruation and reproductive health; in a way that is as sensitive as it is inclusive and holistic. Finding its roots in empathy, the project hopes to build spaces where adolescent girls and women from underserved communities especially, can understand their bodies, without fear or misinformation. Spaces where being aware and open about your health is not a privilege but a right. 

By combining culturally-sensitive educational content with complimenting additions like community engagement, crowdfunding and resource distribution, it is KnowBody’s desire to spark meaningful discourse and normalize something as crucial as menstrual wellness and body awareness. It is also committed to creating long-lasting impact by not just focusing on spreading awareness but also advocating for self-confidence alongside collective support. Through a diverse yet interconnected set of elements, it hopes to contribute to a future where “nobody” feels unprepared, unseen or unheard in matters of “her own body”.
