About

Strengthening evidence and learning to enhance FGM interventions remain a critical area for research attention. The evolving evidence base provides more insight than ever into strategies that are effective or show promise in addressing FGM. This paper synthesizes findings from multiple reviews of evidence and interventions to identify approaches that are effective, promising, or, as of yet, ineffective. This review offers critical insights and practical guidance to support more effective, evidence-based policy and programmatic responses to end FGM.
