Low And Middle Income

Training and supervision are paramount to well-functioning, adaptable Community Health Worker (CHW) programmes. Balancing theoretical and methodological research, lessons from health worker practice, and case studies, this volume has sought to provide a resource to practitioners, policymakers and academics striving to design equitable, participatory CHW programmes. Weaving together interdisciplinary and multiregional perspectives, this book has focussed on the design, implementation and evaluation of technology-based programmes for training and supervision of CHWs, particularly in low- and middle income countries. In doing so, it has set out a roadmap for future equitable, pedagogy-driven CHW programmes.

Menstrual hygiene management (MHM) has gained some attention and several literature reviews have been published. However, both original papers and reviews tend to focus on absorbent access and use and not on the disposal of menstrual waste. This review aims to fill a gap in the water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sector by bringing a focus specifically on menstrual hygiene safe disposal in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). We reviewed published literature since 2002 on menstrual hygiene with a focus on menstrual waste management and menstrual absorbent disposal in LMIC. Database searches were conducted of both peer reviewed literature and grey literature, in addition to hand searching of references of relevant earlier literature reviews. In total 152 articles and reports were identified and 75 met the inclusion criteria and was included in the final review. Existing polices on MHM was also reviewed with a focus on India and South Africa. The review showed that disposal of menstrual waste is often neglected MHM and sanitation value chains, leading to improper disposal and negative impacts on users, the sanitation systems and the environment. Findings call for further research to gain better understandings of MHM waste streams, disposal behaviors, absorbent materials and waste management technologies to deliver health, safety, mobility and dignity for women and girls.
