What is the Knickers for Knowledge\r\nProject?<\/span><\/pre>\n
T<\/span><\/em>he Knickers for Knowledge Project is a joint project that<\/span> SI Barnstaple has been operating since 2011 with our partners <\/span>SI Bulawayo in Zimbabwe.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\n
How did the project start?<\/span><\/pre>\n
A club member raised the issue of how girls in sub-Saharan Africa and other poor areas of the world were having their education ruined by missing school through not having the necessary sanitary protection.<\/span><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
Early Stages of the Project<\/span><\/span><\/pre>\n
To start the project we researched the issue very fully over the next few months. One of our members was visiting SI Bulawayo and we compiled a questionnaire to ascertain whether they felt it was an issue in their area. Their responses showed overwhelmingly that it was very relevant that they were very eager to work with us on a joint project. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
