Front & Female Awards voting committee member Angelle Siyang-Le, director of Art Basel Hong Kong, on Well-being Award winner Lisa Tarquini, founder of The Menopause Space
Lisa Tarquini’s contributions to women’s health resonate deeply with my values as a female leader and a mother, especially after decades working in a predominantly female office. As nutritionist and founder of The Menopause Space, Lisa raises awareness and fosters essential dialogue about menopause, significantly enhancing women's well-being.
Her initiatives, including Hong Kong's first menopause festival, reflect my commitment to community engagement and empowerment. Just as Lisa creates inclusive spaces for women to share their experiences, I strive to amplify diverse voices through art and cultural exchange.
