On February 6, we stand together for ZERO TOLERANCE for FGM. RFLD leads a multi-sectoral approach in West Africa: engaging traditional and religious leaders, training law enforcement, health workers, school awareness programs, and survivor support.
Our strength? The survivors themselves. Trained as mentors and advocates, they lead the dialogue in their own communities. Their leadership is at the heart of change.
✅ Regional advocacy with ACHPR observer status
✅ Permanent infrastructure for 450+ partner organizations
