什麼是月經貧窮呢?月經貧窮是指女性生理期時因無法負擔生理用品或是缺乏生理用品,導致月經來潮時,會減少生理用品的使用數量,或者是拿其他不正確的材質來代替,例如:樹皮、襪子、衛生紙、樹葉⋯⋯等等,因此可能會發生陰部重複的感染,或是陰道炎、骨盆炎、子宮頸癌、不孕等生理影響,以及嚴重的心理健康影響,焦慮、憂鬱等。
What is Period Poverty? Period Poverty refers to the lack of menstrual products due to the financial burden posed by menstrual supplies. This could lead to reducing the use of menstrual products or substituting menstrual products with improper materials such as tree bark, socks, tissue paper, leaves, etc. Using improper materials can not only lead to negative physiological consequences such as recurrent bacterial vaginosis, urogenital infections, pelvic inflammatory disease, cervical cancer and infertility; but also psychological consequences such as depression and anxiety.

循環設計sustainable design
隨著近年來氣候變遷、環境生態的問題日趨嚴重,環保議題及永續發展也漸漸受到大家的重視,因此我們想以「循環設計」為出發,使用回收材料、材質替代的方式,將永續的概念導入我們的畢業製作當中,利用廢棄資源來發展更多的可能性。
Due to climate change and various environmental issues becoming increasingly severe, the topic of sustainability and going green have become more and more popular. Therefore, we want to begin our project with sustainable design by using recyclable material and replacing material to incorporate sustainability.
