On March 7th, the Global Platform for Action to End FGM/C issued a joint letter calling for a Global Summit to end female genital cutting/mutilation (FGM/C). The Global Platform, a consortium of civil society organizations, champions, survivors, and grassroots representatives united to support the abandonment and prevention of FGM/C, also called attention to the funding gap (or lack of adequate funding) of over $2 billion. The letter suggests ‘convening a Global Summit aimed at sincere commitments and increased sustainable funding.’
