Sub-standard 1.5 Commitment to caring, building a humane society, and mutual interdependence.
This stand focused on the ability of social work students to show commitment to caring, building a humane society, and mutual interdependence. Showing commitment to caring, building a humane society, and mutual interdependence involves providing resources that promote one's well-being and not only focusing on one aspect but recognising well-being argued by Healy and Thomas (2020). Furthermore, the interdisciplinary team in a community project must work to promote inclusivity and equality by addressing stigmas and gender inequalities through awareness as this is vital in sustainable change in communities. The SSW has found this to be realistic because to address the stigma around menstruation we need to include everyone including boys. After all, they learn and change their ideas by supporting girls when they have periods in class instead of mocking them.
Throughout the implementation of the sanitary project, the students showed competence in demonstrating a commitment to caring by providing boys and girls with awareness about mensuration health to empower them with knowledge and foster mutual respect for girls by addressing stigma regarding menstruation. Building a humane society by addressing taboos around menstruation between boys and girls allowing boys to raise their opinions during presentations and educating everyone about normalising the conversation about menstruation fostering an inclusive culture of acceptance and respect. This helps prevent the stigma and discomfort associated with menstruation and fosters a gender equality environment. The student rates herself 4\5 and she presents adequate competence in this standard. drive.google.com/file/d/1vvKoGdceKu-xH3nDY1NB95PrS_GWxeOk/view?usp=drive_link
