Period poverty remains one of the most widespread social taboos and continues to be a basis for direct and indirect discrimination against millions of women. That is why WHEN actively takes action in the public debate, claiming the rights that are due to people who have period:<\/p>\n

From tackling period poverty<\/b> and ending the period tax of 24%<\/b> on menstrual products, to the establishment of period leave<\/b>, breaking the stigma<\/strong> and\u00a0 recognizing period<\/strong>\u00a0as an issue of health, dignity and social justice, our team is at the forefront of informing<\/b>, raising awareness<\/b> and a<\/strong>dvocacy<\/b> against inequalities and exclusions, with valuable partners on our side!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n <\/div> \n<\/div> \n\n <\/div> \n<\/div> \n\n<\/div> \n\n\n\n
