Gender equality in the realization of the human rights to water and sanitation 2016, para. 21 | Aug 19, 2019 | Paragraph | In many cultures, girls are considered adults after their first menstruation and may drop out of school, marry and start having children. Increased knowledge of menstruation by both men and women, combined with strategies to lift social taboos on menstruation, may prevent girls from being considered as adults ready for marriage but, rather, as young adolescents going through a normal phase of their development. | Special Rapporteur on the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation | Special Procedures' report |
