Overview
This is a flat-style digital infographic focused on ending menstruation-related stigma and empowering women. It features a wordplay pun in the header text: 'going beyond pain and shame to empower women. period.', where 'period' refers both to the punctuation mark ending the statement and the topic of menstruation. The illustration includes two stylized female figures: one relaxed woman sitting on a white cube on the right, and another woman half submerged in a hole in the brown floor with one leg extended upward on the lower left. A small blue vase with decorative fronds is placed against the pale pink left wall. Two key statistics are displayed: 58% of women have felt embarrassment from being on their period, positioned below the seated woman, and 42% of women have endured period shaming, positioned next to a small hole containing a red circle representing menstrual blood.
