Ghana’s Tax on Sanitary Pads Deprives Girls of Education

Ghana increased already high taxes on imported goods this year, making sanitary pads unaffordable to vulnerable women and girls who are then forced to skip school during their periods. Activists are calling for the taxes to be scrapped and are also producing locally made, biodegradable pads so girls and women don't miss out on education. Senanu Tord reports from Kpong, Ghana.
