Health & Hygiene

Women's Health & Hygiene

covid-vaccinaition

As defined by World Health Organization, “Health is not only the absence of disease but is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being”. Women’s health become all the more significant as she plays the most important role for bringing and raising her child in this world by nourishing and nurturing. Women empowerment is incomplete without proper health and hygiene. And, it is therefore clear that if women are healthy, entire societies flourish, nations rise and their economies boom.

But, the latest National Family Health Survey (NFHS 2019-21) data highlights the apathy of women health in India as 57 percent of women aged between 15 to 49 are anaemic, 23% of women are married before legal age of 18 years leading to poor maternal & child health, more than 41% of women are overweight, and many more. This data depicts a clear picture of real health scenario of half of the population, i.e., women, in India; a nation which proudly believes in its historic culture.

 

Role Of Youth "Veerangnayen" For Better Health Of Women

Awareness Regarding General Health And Nutrition

 We aim at creating awareness amongst women, about leading a healthy lifestyle through our communication and demonstrations at the grassroots by organising healthcare campaigns for women in villages, slums and towns. They are also provided with basic health education that allows them to raise healthier and happier families.

Distributing Nutritious Food To Needy Pregnant Ladies

The most crucial time in a woman’s life is when she becomes a mother. This cherishing time may be the most neglected also that can lead to life-long repercussions. To avoid this misfortune, women should be provided with the best nutritious diet and required medical assistance. As “Youth Veerangnayen” is an NGO “Of the women”, “By the women” and “For the women”. It’s imperative for us to favour needy pregnant ladies with requisite nutritious diet and proper medication to help themselves as well as their to-be-born children. We are happy to have served 21000+ unprivileged women and new mothers with nutritious food to help them sustain their health and well-being.

Menstrual Hygiene Awareness And Distribution Of Related Necessities

Our initiative to aware underprivileged women about menstrual hygiene involves the struggle in fighting related stigmas prevalent all over the society. Spreading awareness is the air of consciousness that will become the reason behind changes. They are made to learn the importance of maintaining personal hygiene in awareness seminars and are provided with relevant materials like sanitary napkins, if needed. Such 250+ seminars have been conducted for women’s hygiene and 5000+ sanitary kits have been distributed.

Sanitary Napkins Distribution

Tackling of every woman related issue in the society ranging from social inequality to domestic violence and dealing with patriarchal mindset; women’s good health is a pre-requisite opposite to latest NFHS data. We, Youth Veerangnayen, take tiny steps with strong determination and commit to generating long term positive consequences and to bring true change at grassroot levels.
“Let’s join hands and help in making a world with healthy and empowered women.”
