Gender equality in the realization of the human rights to water and sanitation 2016, para. 49
Paragraphe
Paragraph text
The sanitation and menstrual hygiene needs of homeless women and girls are almost universally unmet and the needs of that group are rarely reflected in water and sanitation policies. Human rights law demands that States place a particular focus on the needs of the most marginalized; hence, States should ensure that homeless women and girls have access to facilities.
Status juridique
Non-negotiated soft law
Organe
Special Rapporteur on the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation
