Everyone has a role to play in ending FGM. But the EU must be held accountable, If its cares about ending FGM, it must: fully implement key legislation, support grassroots organisations, ensure the next MFF delivers for women’s rights and GBV prevention.

Europe was built on the promise of shared human rights and protection for everyone. Today, we call on the EU to turn commitments into action. Protecting women and girls requires political will, accountability, and concrete measures to end FGM once and for all. #EndFGM #EuropeDay

Anti racism is not optional in the fight against FGM. Without it, systems meant to protect can instead harm. Explore our position paper on FGM, anti racism and intersectionality: endfgm.eu/content/documents/…
