This Purpose: Achieving Environmental Sustainability by increasing access to affordable, bio-degradable, and healthy sanitary napkins, the paper aims to shed light on the use of the Jute Plant in place of the chlorine-bleached wood pulp or cotton and packaging.

Findings: The jute plant can be used to replace the non-biodegradable materials used in making sanitary napkins and that many women are ready to change their napkins for many cost-effective and biodegradable ones. Value: Creating a platform for women to have access to affordable sanitary napkins and conserve the environment. Contributing to sustainable development by positioning the environment in its original state after use.
