| dc.description | Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Project in Western Nepal Phase II (RWSSP-WN II) is a bilateral water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) project. RWSSP-WN II is committed to create an environment in which all community members have equitable opportunities to pursue their right to water and sanitation, whether menstruating or not! RWSSP-WN Phase II has conducted several surveys related to the sustainability of the great achievements made with sanitation and hygiene. Recent toilet use surveys indicated that there are times when people are not using their toilets even if these are available and generally are used. Menstruation was mentioned as one of the reasons, the two other main reasons being after child birth and during mourning. These findings triggered RWSSP-WN II to develop Menstruation, WASH and RWSSP-WN - Position Paper, RWSSP-WN Brief 2-2018. This Brief focuses on adult women. A total of 755 women answered the survey. There is a lot of literature as far as the school environment and younger (teenage) women are concerned (also our Brief 6-2018), less so on adult women. Yet, adult women are the ones that RWSSP-WN II tends to work with: members of Water Users and Sanitation Committees, staff at the Municipality WASH Units, teachers, health workers and other active professional women in the communities. Menstruation should not limit their participation in the community! | en_US |
