600 Mio. Frauen haben während der Menstruation keinen Zugang zu Toiletten. Das hat nicht nur gesundheitliche Folgen, sondern verhindert oft den Schulbesuch. #Menstruation ist daher auch ein Thema für die Entwicklungszusammenarbeit sagt Sts Flachsbarth zum #MenstrualHygieneDay. pic.twitter.com/lcfsfWX9v9
