On 08 March 2025, the Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA) reaffirmed its commitment to community empowerment through a remarkable act of generosity. During an Equipment Handover Ceremony, TIKA donated eight sewing machines and essential materials** to the local NGO, **Muschana**, to bolster their efforts in producing reusable sanitary pads.
Bridging Gaps in Menstrual Health:
TIKA’s donation addresses a critical challenge—access to menstrual health products. Many women and girls in underserved communities face significant barriers due to a lack of affordable and sustainable options. By providing sewing machines and materials to Muschana, TIKA has enabled the organization to scale up its production of reusable sanitary pads, offering a practical and eco-friendly solution to this pressing issue.
Enabling Empowerment and Sustainability
This initiative is more than just a handover—it represents an investment in the community. The sewing machines will not only enhance Muschana’s production capacity but also empower local women by providing them with valuable skills and economic opportunities. This dual impact—improving menstrual hygiene and fostering economic independence—perfectly aligns with TIKA’s vision of sustainable development.
A Commitment to Lasting Change
TIKA’s involvement underscores the transformative potential of strategic support. Their gesture empowers grassroots organizations like Muschana to drive positive change, addressing both immediate needs and long-term goals. The Equipment Handover Ceremony stands as a testament to TIKA’s dedication to fostering development and building inclusive communities. As we celebrate this momentous occasion, we express deep gratitude to TIKA for their meaningful contribution. Together, initiatives like this pave the way for a brighter, more equitable future.
