摘要

This article outlines the grassroot level work of Project Sakhi which creates awareness about menstrual hygiene and has set up self-sustaining production units of low-cost sanitary napkins in rural India. The first section of the article focuses on project Sakhi: its genesis, organizational dynamics, and the complementary use of traditional methods such as folk songs and the modern social media marketing strategies to sustain the project. The eco-friendly incinerator - Ashuddhinashak designed by the founder is illustrated. The second section of this paper focuses on an understanding of the founders' perspectives in the context of the challenges they faced working in interior rural India and the perspectives of the key stakeholders such as the women employees, adolescent school girls, and an associated NGO worker. The impact of the project has been discussed in the context of five aspects: health, employment, revenue generation, environmental considerations, and sustainability of the model in the Indian context.
