Over the coming year PHLUSH will have the opportunity to work with Dr. Greed on proposing international guidelines on restroom design, an effort led by the International Council.
I have just had a paper on women’s toilets in Melbourne, Australia accepted in a journal called Gender, Place and Culture. It should be published in 2012. Happy to send a copy if you are interested.
