Menstrual hygiene
matters
A resource for improving menstrual
hygiene around the world
In November 2010, WaterAid, with support from the
research consortium SHARE (Sanitation and Hygiene
Applied Research for Equity), brought together 16
practitioners and researchers with expertise in water,
sanitation and hygiene (WASH), health, education and
gender to share knowledge and experiences and develop a
research programme on menstrual hygiene.
The group noted that while there is a need for further
research to fill critical gaps in our knowledge about
menstrual hygiene and its impacts, there is a wealth of
practical experience that has not yet been documented
and synthesised so that it can be more widely shared and
applied. This resource has been produced to address this
gap. It presents comprehensive and practical guidance on
what is already being implemented in different contexts to
encourage replication.
The resource has been produced at WaterAid by Sarah
House, Thérèse Mahon and Sue Cavill, with inputs
from a wide range of individuals and organisations who
have shared their experiences and resources through
documentation, interviews and focus group discussions.
