Sustainable Menstrual Hygiene & Reusable Sanitary Napkins
Indians for Collective Action (ICA) is at the forefront with its Sustainable Menstrual Hygiene Initiative, aimed at transforming menstrual health management in India. This crucial campaign addresses the significant environmental and health challenges posed by disposable sanitary pads, which not only contribute to extensive landfill waste but also pose health risks due to their non-biodegradable materials and harmful chemicals.
ICA's innovative solution involves the introduction of reusable cloth pads that are designed to be highly absorbent, eco-friendly, and cost-effective. These pads offer a sustainable alternative that dramatically reduces both environmental impact and the financial burden on women. By promoting and distributing these reusable options, ICA is leading the way in encouraging environmentally responsible and health-conscious menstrual practices, paving the path towards a more sustainable and inclusive approach to menstrual health.
