      @MForstater I prefer locally-innovated & manufactured solutions. There are similar initiatives like @makapads http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDxaNpLHe6I …

      @tmsruge - I wonder what barrier is to the sewing pattern being copied by local tailors, it can't be capital or IP....why the need for BOGO?

      @MForstater We are merely recipients. In the previous case, it is the only BOGO model that does it right. Instead of product, it invests

      @tmsruge - Investmnt good but does product meet needs e.g. this study - girls choose disposable over free cloth pads http://www.doublexeconomy.com/publications-projects-2/sanitary-care-and-girls-education/ …

      @MForstater that just tells me girls are same all over world. Some will prefer cloth, others disposable. 1 solution isn’t going to fit all

      @tmsruge - almost no one prefers cloth. Particularly if they don't have privacy to scrub and dry them.

          @tmsruge Seriously? girls preferences don't matter? (FWIW I guess they wld chose Makapads over Afripads but would be simple enough to test)

          @MForstater And you still didn’t answer my question. If locally made disposable, job-creating pads are wrong. What’s the magical solution?

          @tmsruge - as I said may well be a great product. Not sure there is magical solution. There isn't usually! http://www.doublexeconomy.com/2013/03/23/the-gender-of-necessity-beer-and-lipstick-in-rural-uganda/ …
