Gender, Culture, Arts and Heritage Cabinet Secretary (CS) Hanna Wendot Cheptumo joined residents of West Pokot to mark World Menstrual Hygiene Day.
She called for an end to period stigma and emphasised the importance of keeping girls in school.
This year's theme, "Together for a Period Friendly World", resonates deeply in West Pokot - a region where cultural taboos and poverty have historically limited access to menstrual health resources.
The event marked a turning point in public dialogue on the subject.
