Her official entry into the 72nd Miss Universe Voice for Change contest, presented by Mouawad and CI Talks, addresses a critical issue affecting countless women and girls globally: Period Poverty.
1. Challenging the Norm:
Join Aisha on a journey to confront the silent crisis of Period Poverty. In her impactful video, she introduces us to Maya, a girl whose monthly struggle goes beyond the ordinary—missing school due to the inability to afford menstrual products. Period Poverty is a pressing issue affecting schools, workplaces, shelters, and communities worldwide.
2. Startling Statistics:

As Miss Universe Ireland, Aisha is not just a titleholder; she's a catalyst for change. Witness her launched initiatives aimed at breaking the cycle of period poverty and providing sustainable solutions. Aisha tackles obstacles head-on, fostering meaningful partnerships to create positive, lasting impacts.
4. Sustainable Solutions:
While acknowledging the drawbacks, Aisha sheds light on sustainable solutions with higher upfront costs and the need for proper education. Sustainable period product kits provide eco-friendly and cost-effective options, ensuring that no girl is left behind in pursuing education and dreams.
5. A Call to Action:
Aisha invites you to join the fight against period poverty. Your support can transform lives and spark positive change. This isn't just for Maya; it's for every woman deserving access to this basic necessity.
