English term or phrase: female-friendly latrine
Buenas noches,

Siempre en relación con el tema de saneamiento, esta vez tengo una consulta de un término relacionado con género:

In total 54365 hygiene kits were distributed in Sindhupalchow, Nuwakot, Dhading, Gorkha and Kathmandu valley the hygiene kit consisted of sanitary pad, undergarment, soup and other requirements. Distributions ensured separate queue for male, female, senior citizens and people living with disability. Total 29 **female-friendly latrines** and 28 Safe bathing spaces was constructed in Sindhupalchow, Nuwakot, Dhading, Gorkha and Kathmandu with an area for the disposal of used pads, lockable doors, water for cleaning and hand washing points. Set up a mechanism to keep storage of sanitary pad/napkin so that girls have access to sanitary pad/napkins in urgency.

De antemano, agradezco sus aportes al respecto.
