The study will also explore challenges related to managing menstruation in disaster settings and how these might be addressed.
One hundred and ninety-two women and girls, including five persons with disability are participating in the study and are asked to trial a menstrual hygiene product (either disposable or re-useable pads) for two months and then shared their experience and thoughts on the product.
The study also asked women and girls for their ideas about what would make it easier for them to manage their menstruation in a disaster setting.
