It aches to read this. We fought so hard to have #FGM included in the children’s Act because we knew girls are still being ignored by those tasked to protect them. BAME people like anyone else can and do abuse their kids. We cannot keep looking away. https://t.co/3TAH7T3LPF

In need of self-care and a break from your busy schedule? Into the wild is an opportunity to experience wilderness without leaving the capital, on a mini expedition led by a poc team, with a hike and basecamp in the woods, and lots of reflection time by the fire. @WildintheCity1

@FORWARDUK Schools Programme is designed to support students, teachers, parents and carers to understand the key issues around FGM that affect girls within the community. Find out more here: https://t.co/BaTpiMWMOJ

[FORWARD_Youth @FORWARD_Youth]

Education plays a key role in spreading awareness about the issues of FGM, addressing misconceptions/myths and influencing attitudes and behaviors.

[FORWARD_Youth @FORWARD_Youth]

FGM is not an African issue it is a Global issue and we as a Global community need to take responsibility!

[FORWARD_Youth @FORWARD_Youth]

On this weeks #TedTalkTuesday @KhadijaGbla "It's not an African problem. It's not a Middle Eastern problem. It's not white, it's not black, it has no color, it's everybody's problem. FGM is child abuse. It's violence against women." https://t.co/6CQILVSwZW
