On Saturday, February 7, 2026, a few young men joined us in a discussion of FGM in observance of International Day of Zero Tolerance for FGM. Our request for police clearance to do a walk was rejected, and we believe it was due to our cause. The walk was organized to help prepare our young men (mentally) if they were to marry a survivor of FGM.
Even though the turnout was not massive, we had an honest, open discussion on ways husbands can help their wives (survivors) live beautiful, sexually satisfying, and fearless lives.
Thanks to our partners, Mariama Sahid , CEO She4Peace and Hajwan Abous Kamara , CEO Girls Be Girls - Not Mothers Foundation .
Thanks to Mr. Augustin for speaking with the young men. Thanks to Mr. Sammy Baimba for joining us.
A special thanks to the young men and our 2 youngest walkers for sharing part of their day with us.
May we remember that FGM is a global issue and we are all in some way affected by it.
