The report focuses on measures empowering girls and women to claim their right to be free of FGM as well as a community centered, interpersonal, and group-based approach that encourages gender and social norms change. It details the state of existing policy and legal frameworks in countries with Joint Programme support along with the comprehensive coverage of essential health and associated FGM services in 2021.
