Side event organized by Amref, in collaboration with the Girl Generation and Population Council


Join The Girl Generation, Population Council and Power to You(th) for an interactive session on shifting approaches, creating positive impacts and contributing to putting an end to the Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) including FGM/C, by working in partnership with each other, all communities, governments, donors, multilateral bodies and others to end the practice by 2030 in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) determined by the UN. 
 
The objectives of the sessions are to: explore what it means by ‘girl-centered programming’, how it works, and why this is a key approach to ending FGM/C; present evidence of what works within this approach; share practical examples and lessons on why special attention should be given to protecting and supporting survivors and front-line activists.
