About the End FGM European Network

The End FGM European Network (End FGM EU) is based in Brussels and brings together 32 national organisations in 15 European counties working in the field of female genital mutilation (FGM) as a form of violence against women and girls. It offers a platform for organisations and women and girls affected by FGM to engage directly with European decision makers. The experiences and expertise of member organisations define and guide the network’s calls for European and national political action to end FGM.
