Family & Reproductive Rights Education Program (FARREP)

Overview

FARREP aims to work with communities that practice female genital mutilation (FGM) in order to:

• strengthen their knowledge about FGM and support changes to their attitudes about the practice to prevent its occurrence
• increase access to timely and appropriate sexual and reproductive health services by women and girls from communities that could practice FGM
• build the capacity and expertise of mainstream and specialist sexual and reproductive health services to deal with women and girls affected by or at risk of being affected by FGM.
