⚠️ Save the girl child. End FGM.

FGM violates the right to freedom from torture and inhuman treatment. It violates the right to the highest attainable standard of health and the right to physical integrity. In the worst cases, it even violates the right to life. That’s a lot of rules to break in one action!

By the time you finish reading this sentence, another childhood has been abruptly cut short. Girls are being handed husbands instead of certificates.

The statistic is as staggering as it is devastating: every three seconds, an adolescent girl is married somewhere in the world.

According to UNFPA, this amounts to roughly 12 million girls a year. Millions of individuals stripped of their agency, education, and health before they even reach adulthood. Child marriage is not just a violation of human rights, it is a profound public health and socioeconomic crisis that traps generations of women in cycles of poverty and vulnerability.
