We are the Global Media Campaign to End FGM

The Global Media Campaign is a web of 375 media activists across 7 countries broadcasting directly to their communities where girls are cut. This new generation of digitally literate young campaigners on the ground are best-placed to end FGM in their communities. And, with relatively modest support, they can make significant change.
