【Theme】

Periods are something women deal with for decades. Are you aware that some people cannot adequately access sanitary products due to economic reasons? In December 2025, Ikorosapporo and Hokkaido University Graduate School, Faculty of Health Sciences, Human Ecology Laboratory conducted a survey on daily life for child-rearing households (400 households) supported by the food bank. At this symposium, we will deepen our thoughts on "period poverty" together with the audience, based on the results obtained from that survey.
