‘We will not be able to change the practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) overnight,’ says Zakaria, a 39 year old community leader in the town of Tenkodogo, Burkina Faso, ‘but by continuing to raise awareness on the subject I believe we can make progress and in future finally put an end to it.’

FGM comprises all procedures that involve altering or injuring the female genitalia for non-medical reasons. It’s a harmful practice and a form of violence against women.

Enabel is engaged in the fight to end FGM once and for all and brings its support to the #16daysofactivism against gender-based violence.
