Delighted to be back in Nepal for two months to learn Nepali before collecting my PhD data on the causes & consequences of menstrual restrictions - excited to be working with partner organisation, CREHPA, & so grateful to the @swdtp.bsky.social & ESRC for funding my research 🙏🏻
Blog post on our new article now online with Global Public Health - where is menstruation in global health policy and why does this matter? (Also tagging lead author and wonderful PhD researcher @josephinemcall.bsky.social!)
Thank you! I have sent you a DM
A hand holding the book 'Menstruation in Nepal - Dignity Without Danger' in front of colourful bookshelves.
The first page of chapter 7 in the book, titled 'Society or the law? "No matter what law comes, this society won't stop practising chhaupadi"
Finally got my hands on a paper copy of my first publication! 🤩
Our chapter explores the causes and consequences of menstrual restrictions, including chhaupadi, in one district of Nepal, highlighting reasons for policy non-compliance.
