Menstruation and Society

Year Founded 2021

Seminar # 799

StatusActive

The last years have brought a tremendous diversity of menstrual-positive expressions—from the artistic to the practical, the serious to the playful, the provocative to the educational, the local to the global. The Menstruation and Society Seminar was established as an interdisciplinary forum for advancing conversations and research around menstruation from a range of different angles. The seminar explores the current state of research, engages new audiences and fields of study, and discusses how collaboration across disciplines can advance the field of menstrual studies and translate to improved programs and policy.
