I exist as I am…

Quote ~ August 28, 2013 ~ Sam Gqomo

I exist as I am, that is enough, If no other in the world be aware I sit content, And if each and all be aware I sit content… I am large, I contain multitudes” – Walt Whitman, ‘Song of Myself’

The importance of a drive for sanitisation for women... “The rights to food, water and sanitation are equally crucial for women’s well-being, dignity and enjoyment of other human rights. Poor female nutrition early in life reduces learning potential and productivity, and increases reproductive and maternal health risks. This undermines attempts to eliminate gender inequalities throughout a woman’s lifespan, having an effect on issues such as women’s access to resources. Investing in women’s nutrition improves the overall development capacity of a country, considering the role women have in the household with regard to food production, food preparation and childcare.45 Women’s and girls’ disadvantaged health status and their traditional role in water collection and sanitation management in many societies have a negative impact on them, and it has been recognized that a lack of water and sanitation also disproportionately affects them. Women and girls have greater need for privacy when using toilets and when bathing, especially when menstruating, and in addition not having easy access to toilets and bathrooms makes them more vulnerable to rape and other forms of gender-based violence.” - UN OHCHR #HumanRights #SouthAfrica
