“Courses are a natural bodily function. As a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations Population Fund, I want to work on building a world that we no longer need to explain,” stressed the person who walked in a show for the biggest fashion houses. Tory Burch, Balmain, Stella McCartney …
United Nations Population Fund and mI am Vodianova will empower women and girls by addressing the prejudices and taboos related to their bodies and their health that lead to discrimination and exclusion around the world.
