Ghanaian activists took to the streets for a "Don't Tax My Period" march to fight back against heavy taxation of menstrual hygiene products. The country's economic crisis has intensified the struggle for essential goods, hitting vulnerable groups like women particularly hard. Loretta Naa Dei Ashie, Women's Leader of the Socialist Movement of Ghana, shares insights on the campaign and the pervasive yet often overlooked issue of period poverty.
