It’s Bloody Time: Mainstreaming Menstrual Health

We invite you to celebrate 28 May – Menstrual Hygiene Day with us at The Factory Berlin (Mitte)!

A new, high-profile movement has emerged to address the centrality of menstruation in relation to core issues of gender equality and equity (-Jennifer Weiss-Wolf). This ‘menstrual movement’ is flowing strong, all around the world, but especially here in Berlin, especially with regards to innovation!
