Standing with victims of FGM, female genital mutilation is cruel but exposing a tiny baby to baby to such a gruesome act should not go unpunished

We are saddened to learn of the FGM related deaths of two infants. FGM is a human rights violation with severe consequences for women & girls. As always, we stand with survivors & call on the State to take relevant action to ensure a violence free world for women & girls. #EndFGM

In The Gambia, GBV remains a pervasive issue affecting women, girls & vulnerable groups across all walks of life. From domestic & sexual violence to harmful practices such as child marriage and #FGM which we recently battled at the National Assembly. #16DaysOfActivism

In commemoration of the 2024 #16DaysOfActivism against Gender-Based Violence, we stand in solidarity with women in The Gambia and around the globe. This year’s theme is a powerful reminder of our duty to collectively challenge and dismantle systems that perpetuate #GBV.
