The University of Manchester is conducting a project, alongside Manchester City Council, as part of its Third-Year Geography module ‘Governing Urban Transformations’ at the University of Manchester. It is generating a strategy and report for tackling period poverty in Greater Manchester, which has some really exciting opportunities to be taken seriously by officials, with some of the policy recommendations potentially being implemented within our city.
It is collecting primary research through a Public Consultation questionnaire on people’s lived experiences and understanding of period poverty. The survey is open for everyone (including men), and to create the most robust policy suggestions, they need as many responses as possible. The survey should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete and will be open until Monday 16 March. Click here to take part in the survey.
