As an SDG Advocate,I was privileged to be part of an FGM sensitisation program for corp members. we reached over a hundred corps members. Female genital mutilation (FGM) is a deeply harmful practice with no medical benefits. It involves the partial or total removal of external female genitalia for non-medical reasons, often resulting in serious physical and psychological consequences for the victims. FGM violates the rights of girls and women, infringing upon their health, well-being, and autonomy. Efforts to end FGM include legal prohibitions, community education, and support for affected individuals. Continued global action and advocacy are essential to eradicate this harmful practice and ensure the rights and dignity of all individuals are respected. #fgm #sdgs
