Empathy in Action: Period Pain Simulator Camp

Pinkishe Foundation, in collaboration with the Women’s Development Cell at the College of Vocational Studies, recently organized an innovative event titled the Period Pain Simulator Camp. The initiative was designed to bridge the empathy gap by giving young men a real sense of what menstruation feels like.

The Purpose of the Camp

The camp invited boys to step into an experience they had only heard about. With the help of simulators, they felt the discomfort of menstrual cramps firsthand. What started as hesitation soon transformed into surprise, curiosity, and eventually empathy.

Firsthand Experience of Menstrual Pain

Participants expressed that they had never imagined the true intensity of menstrual pain. Something often dismissed as a routine part of women’s lives was revealed to be a deeply challenging reality faced every month. For many boys, the simulation became a powerful moment of understanding and respect.

Conversations Sparked by the Experience

The experience did more than recreate discomfort. It sparked meaningful conversations. Nervous laughter gave way to thoughtful dialogue about the physical and emotional toll of menstruation. Many of the boys shared a newfound appreciation for the resilience of women.

Breaking Taboos and Building Empathy

The camp proved that experiential learning can play a vital role in breaking taboos and reshaping perspectives. By encouraging openness and empathy, it opened the way for a culture where menstruation is acknowledged without shame and where women feel seen and supported.

Pinkishe Foundation’s Commitment

Pinkishe Foundation believes that awareness is the first step toward change. Through initiatives like the Period Pain Simulator Camp, the organization continues to build inclusive communities where every experience matters and every voice is respected.
