According to Blandine, 27 years old and member of the youth movement in Koupela, Burkina Faso, it’s very important to discuss the issue of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) with family and elders in her community. By talking about it, and by addressing the health consequences of the practice, we can #endFGM.

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.
