Inclusive WASH Menstrual Hygiene Management Friendly and Accessible WASH Facilities for Emergencies
Sectors:
Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene
This manual presents three adaptable designs for a trench latrine block, raised latrine block, and bathing block. Development of these solutions followed a user-centered approach to understand the main barriers, challenges, and opportunities that WASH, and shelter practitioners perceive when designing and implementing WASH facilities that enable women and girls to manage their menstruation. The solutions presented in this manual are intended to be adaptable for a wide range of contexts, and therefore the design information is accompanied by guidance on how to assess the needs of the target community and local site constraints.
