Sanitation needs and concerns are gendered, requiring law and policy frameworks to adopt a gender-sensitive approach to address the specific sanitation-related needs of women and girls. The brief, Right to Sanitation: A Gendered Perspective, focuses on the gendered dimensions of the right to sanitation in the Indian context. It discusses the legal status of the right to sanitation in India and international law, with a focus on structurally excluded communities. This briefing paper is valuable for individuals and organizations involved in the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) sector, WASH practitioners, policymakers, researchers, and more. The full brief is now available on the CREA website, and you can read it here.
