Dear Daughter Campaign

A radically different approach to end Female Genital Mutilation, the UNFPA & Ifrah Foundation’s Dear Daughter campaign is rooted in personal empowerment

[Dear Daughter Campaign @DearDaughterC]

With support from @GermanyinKenya, we launched the #BornPerfectCaravans project in #Galmudug through a stakeholder engagement on media production to raise awareness of & support the implementation of the #anti_FGM law. The event was officiated by the Minister of Women & HRD.

Change begins within communities. Through #SASATogether, local activists, community leaders, & IAs in #Baidoa are facilitating community-led dialogues that challenge the continuation of #FGM & inspire collective action to #EndFGM. Thanks to @RESCUEorg & @Sweden for their support.

Today we launched Born Perfect: From Law to Practice in Garissa County, bringing stakeholders together to strengthen FGM prevention, legal awareness and enforcement. Together, we can end FGM and protect every girl's future. @GermanyinKenya @IfrahFoundation

Today, on the International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation, we amplify voices from Galmudug, the first Somali state to pass a law banning FGM.

The law exists.
The responsibility is shared.
Girls must be protected.

Ambiyo once believed FGM was tradition. Through SASA! Together, supported by @KenyaKoica and #UNFPA, she found the truth and turned her pain into purpose.
Today, she speaks out to protect girls in Mogadishu.

"Female genital mutilation is a tool of control and oppression. There is no medical, cultural, or ethical justification for it."

The @EU_Commission leadership reaffirms: FGM must be eliminated. 🇪🇺✋
