"This was very inspiring"
I didn't know much about the history of menstruations and menstrual products, it was very inspiring. And just being able to talk openly about this topic with other people in a public space is a liberating act.

"It was an amazing tour!"
As the director of a feature film on menstruation, I already had a deep research and a lot of insightful conversations with activists and change-makers. It truly speaks for this tour that I learned something new.
It was a great experience having this educational guidance through an outstanding exhibition.
