International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation

International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation

Female genital mutilation (FGM) reflects deep-rooted inequality between the sexes, constituting an extreme form of discrimination against women and girls through procedures that involve altering or injuring the female genitalia for non-medical reasons.

“Globally, it is estimated that at least 200 million girls and women alive today have undergone some form of female genital mutilation”

Get involved in enforcing basic human rights across the world through public awareness, charity fundraisers or simply hash tagging #End FGM.
