Our Team
We are driven by a recognition of gender disparities and lack of access to unbiased crucial resources.
Federica Cecalupo (she/her), Founder & Executive Director
Federica believes in a society in which FLINTA* individuals have full power and control of their lives to become anything they want.
In 2019, she listened to her inner voice urging her to use her skills, experience and heart and stand for equality. She began her new journey by founding the Berlin Team of Days for Girls and starting to focus her efforts on increasing Menstrual Awareness. This led her to spend 4 months in Nepal where she worked on the completion of the first DfG Campaign and offered her professionalism to a local organization, Apeiron.
Once back in Berlin, it was time to start working on the creation of Hildashaus e.V. and strongly committing to gender equality and human rights.
