Global review of sanitation systems trends and interactions with menstrual management practices
Report for the menstrual management and sanitation systems project

This review of sanitation system trends and interactions with menstrual management practices has been conducted as part of the broader project on Menstrual Management and Sanitation Systems.

It starts with a review of trends in the development of urban sanitation systems and then explores the interaction between menstrual management and sanitation systems, mainly relating to the issue of disposal of
used menstrual blood absorption materials. Finally, it proposes a framework of interactions by positioning a range of issues of particular relevance for menstrual management into the different parts of the sanitation system.

This review forms part of the Menstrual Management and Sanitation
Systems research project financed by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
