AfricaGender Indaba – Edition 41

In this AfricaGender Indaba podcast, the spotlight is on female genital mutilation (FGM) in Africa, following the commemoration of International Day of Zero Tolerance for FGM.

We speak to a Kenya-based anti-FGM campaigner who has just been honoured for his efforts in the fight against FGM.

We also hear that although it is women and girls who suffer FGM, men and boys are also affected and they should take up the fight to eradicate the practice that disfigures women and girls and continues to put their lives at risk.

And we hear about the first ever anti-FGM conference that took place in Kenya on International Day of Zero Tolerance for FGM.
