“…It is imperative to comprehend the interrelationship between people’s minds and behaviour and their environmental factors. Applicable hypothetical and observational proof shows how ecological degradation can come in between the fulfilment of human requirements for wellbeing, security, ability, relatedness and independence, along these lines causing a lower level of prosperity, and how better ecological conditions and conduct can advance the fulfilment of these necessities and in this manner more prominent well-being (Rajput et al, 2019).…”

The present study hovers around the socio-cultural factors among the women of Meena tribe which pose a grave threat to their reproductive health and also takes into account subjects like menstrual hygiene. Reproductive health and hygiene have always remained stigmatic and dogmatic topics of discussion. The significance of the proverb ‘Prevention is better than cure’ is a saying whose importance cannot be overemphasised. Hygiene then is the foremost requirement for a healthy and good life. The key issues of reproductive rights include the basic right to decide the birth timing space between successive births (or what is known as the pregnancy gap), and also the right to decide the number of offspring in marital life. Some other basic reproductive rights are access to methods of family planning and access to hygienic conditions, health services, education and information. Due to gross misinformation, ignorance and deep-seated taboos, the subject of reproductive health has eluded people for long. The most noticeable detriments are maternal mortality and unhygienic menstrual conditions, thereby leading to women’s lower status not just socially but also mentally and physically. This study reveals how the socio-cultural position of tribal Meena women affects them and adds to the misery and risks faced by them with respect to their health, menstrual hygiene and their selection of health services. This is established by conducting on-field surveys and interviews. The research also derives its findings from various primary and secondary data along with necessary sample collections.

“…According to the Regulation of the Minister of Public Works of the Republic of Indonesia Number 5 (2008), green open spaces have ecological functions, and one of them as a microclimate regulator related to thermal comfort. This function is intended to reduce temperatures and reduce the impact of heat in urban areas, thus creating an urban ecosystem that is comfortable for activities and provides good air quality due to control of air pollution (Nowak et al, 2018;Chow and Bakar, 2019;Rajput et al, 2019;Mbarep and Herdiansyah, 2020;Rushayati et al, 2020).…”
