Comissió Catalana d'Acció pel Refugi Ciutats Defensores dels Drets Humans Harmful cultural practices like #FGM should be abandoned. There is no excuse in mutilating our girls. The pain and suffering girls go through after undergoing this practice lives with them forever. No benefit whatsoever only bad news and trauma that sometimes never heals! #EndFGM

#FGM is a violation of human rights and has no health benefits. Immediate complications of #FGM may include:
🩸 Excessive bleeding
🤕 Severe pain
🚫 Problems urinating
🦠 Infections
💀 Death

We must join hands to #EndFGM .

Strong call to end #FGM & child marriage in Northern Red Sea Region! Kudos to GoSE, partners & community leaders working to #protectchildren 's rights. Let's continue raising awareness & enforcing laws to end these harmful practices for good! #EndFGM 🇪🇷

Non-medical staff working in healthcare facilities are connecting community members with healthcare workers who perform #FGM . This highlights the need to expand our efforts beyond health professionals ~Dr. Jane Kiok, Chief Officer, Medical & Clinical Services, Narok. #EndFGM

During this school break, let's remember the young girls in Northern Kenya who are being subjected to the horrors of FGM, transported to Ethiopia and rural areas for this cruel practice. It's time to put an end to this violation of human rights. #EndFGM
#SHARP

🚫Over 200 million women and girls alive today have been subjected to FGM. This is unacceptable!

We must protect women and girls from this harmful practice.

#EndFGM

#FGM has no benefit and must be banned everywhere. The practice is sickening and destroys a girls/woman's life forever due to the harsh consequences it has. It's a #harmful #cultural #Practice , and like any other bad practice, it should be forgone, PERIOD! #EndFGM #HumanRights

'I always believed there was a reason behind #FGM , a tradition that needed defending. But when faced with the truth, I saw there's no justification for it.”

Elder Simrimula of Ethiopia, had a change of heart about FGM. His story: bit.ly/3HRYo6V #EndFGM

Chief Adebayo from #Nigeria 🇳🇬 didn't just talk; he backed it up!

He enacted a community-wide ban on #FGM , with consequences for those who violated it.

Words need action!✊
