Millennium Fellowship Project: End Female Genital Mutilation
End Female Genital Mutilation started as a thought process and materialised into a project . It involved me educating parents seeing as they are the primary caregivers of the girl children commonly affected. I got to educate them on the fact that it has no health benefits and the consequences are not just acute but long term. This practice do from a place of love is causing more harm than good; they do it because they don't know better.
