Vivi Lin 林薇 is a global period equity activist. She’s the 2021 recipient of the Diana Legacy Award from the UK - an award for youths aged 9-25 years in recognition of their social action or humanitarian work. Lin founded WithRed, an NGO to solve period poverty, boost education for women’s health, and eliminate stigma surrounding menstrual cycles.

“Whenever we talk to people or negotiate with people or lobby with a government, we always try to remove all these obstacles that we already can see right in front of them.”
