How are FGM/C and forced intersex ge***al procedures or surgeries connected? What can we learn across movements to better protect human rights, bodily autonomy and dignity?

Join us for Exploring the Connections Between FGM/C and Forced Intersex Ge***al Surgeries: Human Rights, Bodily Autonomy, and Survivor-Centered Approaches.

This webinar will create a cross movement learning space to explore these intersections through lived experiences and survivor-centered approaches, examining how advocacy, healthcare, policy and community-based efforts can better protect everyone’s rights, dignity, and autonomy.

This isn’t theory. This is real life.

Girls are still at risk of FGM and in some cases, there are only hours to act.

In today’s episode, Domtila Chesang Chepatula Hsc takes us inside what it means to step in before it happens, navigating risk, community pressure and impossible choices to protect girls.

We also talk about her documentary Mtetezi and why storytelling matters when the stakes are this high. African Women Rights Advocates.
