MHM — an unappreciated development challenge

28 Jun 2023  |  The Express Tribune  |  English  |  Economic Participation

Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) is a significant development issue impacting women's health, education, and economic participation. Globally, around 500 million females lack access to basic sanitary products and hygienic bathrooms, with 79% of females in Pakistan facing similar challenges. Cultural norms, poverty, and lack of education exacerbate the issue, with only 17% of Pakistani women having access to sanitary napkins. The high cost of sanitary products, compounded by a 12% luxury tax, makes them unaffordable for many. The stigma around menstruation and inadequate facilities in schools contribute to girls dropping out. Unsafe MHM practices lead to health risks, particularly in marginalized communities. Addressing MHM is crucial for achieving several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and promoting women's wellbeing, health, and empowerment.
