The aim of the project is to increase the capacity of professionals to effectively provide support and protection to victims using a culturally sensitive approach while incorporating a women’s human rights perspective. It will ensure targeted awareness raising by improving knowledge of the practice, preventing stigmatization in the media and protecting women and girls living with or at risk of FGM.
