Are pads the priority? Contested framings of the Brazilian National Policy on menstrual health and dignity
Policymakers and policy advocates in Brazil have adopted various framings for menstrual policymaking, including menstrual precarity, health and dignity. Relying on the concept of framing and applying the “what is the problem represented to be?” approach, we unpack how menstrual needs are represented and how these representations inform and curtail proposed solutions in the Brazilian national policy. We rely on document analysis and interviews wit…
Better nutrition for better health
Overconsumption of unhealthy foods poses a significant public health challenge in the European Union (EU) and is linked to high rates of non-communicable disease. We analyse EU food and nutrition law and policy against global health and nutrition objectives, specifically the human rights to health and food. We find that EU law and policy prioritize food safety and consumer information which results in nutrition being considered solely an individu…

MANstruation
Trans and nonbinary experiences of menstruation are subject to menstrual discourse that is deeply gendered. Terms such as "feminine hygiene" and "women's health" make trans and nonbinary people acutely aware that they fall outside of the ideal of the default menstruator. To better understand how such language affects menstruators who are not cis women and what alternative linguistic strategies they adopt, we conducted a cyberethnography of 24 You…
The persistent power of stigma
Menstruation is shrouded in stigma and shame—that is the common refrain in burgeoning initiatives on menstrual health and hygiene. Public policies alone cannot undo stigma and enact social change, but they do interact with social norms. They can reflect and adopt stigmatizing attitudes and, as a result, institutionalize, formalize, and legitimize stigma; or they can actively challenge and denounce it and mitigate existing discrimination. Against …
You don’t just do it because someone else said so’
Meanings of menstruation are deeply embedded in culture and religion. The current dominant narrative presents menstrual practices as restrictions and often describes Hindu women as 'subjected to' these practices, characterising them as the oppressed victims of their religion. This article seeks to complicate this oversimplified narrative by exploring women's motivations, choices and decisions related to menstrual practices in a small-scale study …
Menstrual health
The term "menstrual health" has seen increased use across advocacy, programming, policy, and research, but has lacked a consistent, self-contained definition. As a rapidly growing field of research and practice a comprehensive definition is needed to (1) ensure menstrual health is prioritised as a unified objective in global health, development, national policy, and funding frameworks, (2) elucidate the breadth of menstrual health, even where dif…
Menstruation and Human Rights
With the current momentum around menstruation, it is increasingly framed as a human rights issue. We see such language in UN documents and many organizations adopt the framing of human rights. Scholars have argued that “framing the issue as being about the right to safe, healthy and dignified menstruation moves it from being a negative problem to be solved” to “an affirmative principle through which the facts of women and girls’ lives are acknowl…
We like things tangible
Over the last decade, many countries have adopted policies addressing menstrual needs. Our research explores the opportunities and challenges that have shaped these initiatives and critically examines their scope and substantive focus. Our study analyses developments in four countries: India, Kenya, Senegal, and the United States. It is based on an analysis of 34 policy documents and interviews with 85 participants active in policy-making or advo…

This open access handbook, the first of its kind, provides a comprehensive and carefully curated multidisciplinary view of Critical Menstruation Studies and opens up new directions in research and advocacy. It is an unmatched resource for scholars in the field as it rapidly expands.
The paradox of framing water as a human right in the United States
Many communities across the US struggle to access clean and affordable water. We examine civil society responses relying on “water as a human right” through case studies in California, Michigan, and the Appalachian Mountains. This trend presents a paradox, given that socio-economic rights are not perceived as relevant for domestic policy and are even met with hostility in the US. We analyze this tension through the lens of different conceptions o…
The Sustainable Development Goals and Human Rights
This open access book analyses the interplay of sustainable development and human rights from different perspectives including fight against poverty, health, gender equality, working conditions, climate change and the role of private actors. Each aspect is addressed from a more human rights-focused angle and a development-policy angle. This allows comparisons between the different approaches but also seeks to close gaps which would remain if only…

Leaving no one behind? Persistent inequalities in the SDGs
With a rallying cry of ‘leave no one behind’, the Sustainable Development Agenda has moved inequalities centre stage. A number of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) include a cross-cutting focus on inequalities and the advancement of some communities that have historically experienced discrimination. However, the litmus test for whether the SDGs will truly ‘leave no one behind’ is not the inclusion of such (aspirational) language, but wheth…
Interpreting the Right to a Dignified Minimum Existence
Many countries are well known for their progressive case law on economic, social and cultural rights. German courts would not usually be among the first to name,1 but the decisions of the German Constitutional Court in two recent cases2 are noteworthy and have already garnered some international attention.3 These judgments move away from the general trend of German courts being rather restrictive in interpreting economic, social and cultural righ…
The Human Right to Water
The United Nations General Assembly and the Human Rights Council recognised the human right to water in 2010. This formal recognition has put the issue high on the international agenda, but by itself leaves many questions unanswered. This book addresses this gap and clarifies the legal status and meaning of the right to water through a detailed analysis of its legal foundations, legal nature, normative content and corresponding State obligations.…
