Greater Noida, June 9, 2025:
Galgotias University has launched “Sakhi – The Menstrual Companion,” a wellness-focused menstrual tracking app developed by B.Tech students during the university’s iOS bootcamp. Designed to promote inclusivity and break menstrual taboos, Sakhi reflects the university’s strong commitment to student health and well-being.
Alongside this digital innovation, the university also introduced the “Happy Periods” initiative—an awareness drive focused on the link between menstrual health and happiness. This effort sensitized 1,141 students through engaging activities, discussions on hygiene practices, and myth-busting sessions, all aimed at fostering a more informed and empathetic student community.
These initiatives are part of the broader Art of Happiness course, for the girl students of the University. The course explores concepts like the PERMA model, Panch Kosh theory, types of stress, and global well-being practices. It encourages students to become emotionally balanced and socially aware individuals.
Galgotias University continues to prioritize holistic development and announced that the Art of Happiness course will be extended to more departments in the coming academic sessions.
