Resumo
This research seeks to analyze whether menstrual poverty prevents girls and
women from exercising their fundamental rights, as it results from gender inequality.
Being the gender inequality studied from the works of bell hooks, María Lugones, Joan
Scott and Heleieth Saffioti. The research also aims to understand the relationship between
gender inequality and menstrual poverty and the need to create public policies to combat
menstrual poverty. The work also lists and discusses the importance of analyzing menstrual
poverty based on Nancy Fraser's theory of social justice. Therefore, the research brings the
public eye on the family in Brazil, highlighting the importance of government policies
turning their attention to the family group, and not just to the individual. Then, in relation
to policies on menstrual poverty, it describes the foreign and national initiatives on the
subject. Through literature review and using qualitative methodology, books, articles, bills,
reports and laws were analyzed, as well as the application of an online questionnaire to
deputies and councilors who filed legislative proposals related to combating menstrual
poverty . In the end, it concludes that for a public policy to combat menstrual poverty to
be effective, it must encompass the search for gender equality, participatory parity, the
promotion of family autonomy, the guarantee of basic sanitation, quality education and the
review of excessive taxation on sanitary napkins.
