The End FGM Canada Network is a non-partisan group of individuals and organizations working to end female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) and support survivors both in Canada and abroad.
We urge the Canadian government to acknowledge that FGM/C is an issue here too, and to create a National Action Plan that clearly outlines policies and practices to best support survivors and to protect girls at risk in Canada. We also encourage the Canadian government to focus more development aid on the human rights battle to end FGM/C worldwide.
The Network unites members and stakeholders across Canada to share knowledge and foster collaboration within the field of FGM/ C, with a focus on creating platforms for engagement and offering trauma-informed culturally sensitive tools to enable frontline professionals to address FGM/C in Canadian communities. We also work with our international partners to advance the discourse and human rights battle to end FGM/C worldwide.
