Abstract

This note summarises the research findings of a SHARE and WSSCC funded study in India seeking to identify whether gendered violence is symptomatic of power inequalities in society and whether those inequalities manifest themselves in women's psycho-social stress and translate into women's decisions about where to relieve themselves. It was presented at the UNC 2014 Water and Health Conference: Where Science Meets Policy and the Sanitation and Women in India: Research Findings conference held in Delhi, India 7-8 November 2014.
