Female genital mutilation refers to the partial or complete removal of the external female genitalia. It is typically done between infancy and the age of 15, but adult women may also undergo the procedure.
What is female genital mutilation and where does it happen? FGM is thought to affect up to 140 million women and girls, and is recognised as a violation of human rights. In Somalia, 98% of young girls suffer female genital mutilation. Between 100 million and 140 million women and girls are thought to be living with the consequences of female genital mutilation, according to the World Health Organisation.
