- Many school girls, especially in rural areas in Uganda miss up to eight days each school term to avoid stigma after failing to get sanitary towels. But a new and cheap version made using banana stems fibre could be the solution to most of the challenges. In Nature Files, Moses Akena explores the pilot innovation that will also help control environmental pollution.

Yah KHAI!! Future is going to be great without western technology
don't show everything about your what you know... careful from those Asian and Western countries sit
It's a very dirty process. no gloves or mask.
You have copied the idea from kabarak university, Kenya students
This tech is everywhere, not copied the Indians ave been using it long b4!
Exactly.
@@lessonsforlife2775 you are so right
These employees should be using GLOVES. It pays to spend a little money to clean up. Also, the bucket of paper is too low and the paper is not being dried on a clean surface. Women's bodies are delicate. This process may cause infections.
Ava Limpa same thoughts
I don't know about the sodium hydroxide, but I think it's great that their even putting in effort to combat, not only an environmental issue with little resources but also to improve the health of disadvanted girls the best way they can bc obviously they are lacking in these essentially hygiene products. I think it is important to acknowledge that these are also people who live in a closer proximity to nature so what's unclean to someone else may not be for them. So in a sense to say it is unclean is subjective in ways bc the basis of what your saying is probably not considering that these are people who historically had a more natural or mutualistic relationship with nature prior to being touched by European settlers. It should also be noted that these women and girls are highly disadvanted and neglected and much of the reasoning has to do with their land being so exploited which many other countries like the West are responsible for. So I think that's these women should be celebrated for working to make change anything that it solves nothing to critique without offering any tips or resources to improve their methods, but I also think that before those assumptions are made that it may cause infection or disease you should research the statistics on whether that is an issue they are faced with and if they are, whether they know and use a method which prevents it. Anyhow I'm rambling and obviously have too much time on my hands rn but I think it's great what their doing for the environment and those girls.
Morgan i agree..... we tend to judge from our own eyes but not theirs who is the one actually involve in the process......
