Female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) affects over 200,000,000 women and girls globally. The Global Platform for Action to End FGM/C developed a call to action to advocate for greater prioritization, resourcing, and action to end female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C). Recognizing that FGM/C is a social and gendered norm, upheld through complex systems of patriarchy and tradition, the call to action includes acknowledging that we cannot bring about its end without engaging everyone, including boys and men. During this event, we will gather advocates and experts who have experience building male engagement programs to discuss ways of incorporating men in programming to end FGM/C.
