CSW69 in NYC was a success! We emphasized the importance of equipping program implementers with simple yet robust and innovative tools for evidence generation. We also shared findings on using indirect methods to assess the effectiveness of interventions aimed at ending FGM.
Today, our @Pop_Council-led @FGM_Data_Hub is in Dakar, actively engaged in a 'National Proof of Concept Workshop.' This event gathered partners to evaluate the evidence that demonstrates the feasibility of our different programmes and how well our approaches are ending #FGM.
The Council’s @FGM_Data_Hub created a toolkit that uses the “Confidante Method” to uncover the full extent of the harmful practice of FGM. Let’s #Unite2EndFGM through better data. #EndFGM

This year, on the International Day of Zero Tolerance to #FGM, we are called to Step Up the Pace! It’s time to strengthen alliances, build onto movements, and take bold action to #endFGM. Every voice matters in this fight - your voice matters! So, let’s unite and stand strong!✊
Our President, @DrRanaHajjeh, is making her first official visit to our Kenya office this week. She will be meeting with staff, learning more about our work in Kenya, and engaging with stakeholders and donors.
Believe it or not, we’ve managed to squeeze in a final meeting as we wrap up the year! We’re at a Grantees’ Capacity-Sharing Forum, which is aimed at responding to the needs of smaller #endFGM grantees on strengthening MEL in their settings, drawing on successes, and challenges.
This marks the end of an impactful gathering, one filled with insights and collaboration. I’m excited to see the outcomes emerging from this meeting! #16DaysOfActivism#EvidenceforPrograms
