The topic is described as “to tax or not to tax – the perspectives on taxation on menstrual products from low- and middle-income countries.”  With a number of recent success on the tax elimination front worldwide – including Rwanda just one month ago, and Germany shortly before that – there will be many new developments to discuss.

For those interested in the topic of menstrual product taxation, also be sure to watch the video of a past webinar by Period Posse based at Columbia University called “Ending the Tampon Tax:  Mobilizing Policy Change in the U.S. and U.K.”  It originally aired in October 2019, and is available for viewing here.
