2024 Guide on FGM for EU Decision-Makers

For 10 years, End FGM European Network has been bringing together EU stakeholders with communities, CSOs ad NGOs in order to build alliances and work together to eliminate FGM in Europe. 2024 marked the start of a new cycle for the European Union, with the election of 720 new MEPs and a new College of Commissioners.
To make sure that ending FGM is kept high on the political agenda, End FGM EU will continue to work closely with decision-makers so that together we can shape a future free from FGM in Europe. To introduce MEPs and the Commissioners to the Network, the work that we do and to highlight our recommendations for this new mandate, we have created a Welcome Pack for the new decision-makers.

This Welcome Pack does not only contains our top 5 recommendations for the next 5 years to sustainably end FGM and gender-based violence for all, but also key information about FGM in Europe and the work of the Network. Check our Welcome Pack below!

This guide was developed by our Policy & Advocacy Team (Nejma, Sayeh, Tania Hosseinian) and our Senior Communications Officer (Ludovica Stornaiuolo). By working together with EU institutions and leaders, we can build a future where FGM and gender-based violence no longer exist. This guide provides essential insights, tools, and recommendations that EU decision-makers can adopt to drive meaningful change in 2024 and beyond.
