Ongoing support for girls at risk of FGM

By Natalie Tingo | Project Lead

Our report shares our experiences supporting more than 250 girls at risk of Female Genital Mutilation in the Kuria region, rural Kenya. In this region up to 80% of girls between the age of 9 to 18 years are subjected to Female Genital Mutilation From recent reports from stakeholders the number is suspected to be higher. Female Genital Mutilation is the cutting of the female genital as a way to control the sexuality of girls and is considered a social norm in most communities.

We are currently rolling out various activities we look forward to sharing our progress in subsequent reports.

Please check our social media pages to see all that we are up to. Thank you very much for your support.
