International Day for Zero Tolerance to Female Genital Mutilation
Today, we stand in solidarity with survivors, activists, and organizations working tirelessly to end this harmful practice that violates the human rights, dignity, and health of every woman and girl. We acknowledge that significant progress has been made through different innovative approaches, but millions of girls worldwide are still at risk.
To eliminate FGM by 2030 is a critical step towards achieving gender equity, inclusive societies, and economic growth. Therefore, we must intensify all efforts.
Let’s commit to a future where every girl can grow up safe, healthy, and free.
