“I will not tolerate Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting”

We’re gathering people to stand up against Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting to show decision-makers and survivors that we’re serious about ending it. For too long survivors have had to be the educators and fight to protect their bodies and the bodies of their daughters, all within a healthcare system that neglects their needs.

We are done waiting for bureaucratic structures and slow-moving change; our support hubs have proven that by making space, listening, and sharing knowledge we can change the future of many girls' lives. Now is the time to make this a movement!

Dear Vavenger (yes, you),

Thank you for supporting us this far. Are you ready to follow our lead and step into a more active role? 

We know what needs to be done to end FGM/C and can’t continue waiting for systems and politicians to catch up. Now we’re asking for your help to get the attention women and girls deserve. It won’t happen overnight, but together our voices are stronger.

Read the pledge below and sign if you’re with us. 

I have zero tolerance for

  1. Women and girls’ bodies being controlled by anyone but themselves.

  2. Women and girls’ voices being silenced or ignored. 

  3. Services that aren’t fit to support minoritised women and girls and survivors or FGM/C.
