The day I became a woman

The day I became a woman

For millions of women around the world, the transition to womanhood is not marked by independence, a job or graduation from school, but rather by female genital mutilation.

Statement

Empowering women and girls requires renewed efforts to end violence and harmful practices

calendar_today21 November 2016

This is 2016 and yet one in three women worldwide still experiences or has experienced some form of physical or sexual violence, usually perpetrated by someone she knows. Moreover, millions of women and girls have been subjected to other forms of violence and harmful practices, such as female genital mutilation, which affect an estimated 200 million women and girls, or child marriage, with one in three girls in developing countries being married off before the age of 18.
