Informed Choice Network
Informed Choice Network is a collaborative of civil society actors working on community empowerment and women's health in India, with the ambition to intensify efforts to promote menstrual health and end period poverty. Our approach combines body literacy, informed choice, access to menstrual products and health services, while also creating community-based entrepreneurs to ensure consistent, sustained, and responsive interventions to promote menstrual health. Our collaborative focuses on the provision of a basket of menstrual products (particularly reusable products such as cloth pads and menstrual cups), and linkages with health services, reaching women from marginalized urban communities and those engaged in the informal sector. The collaborative is based in India, and aims to reach as many women as possible by 2030!
