FAHP engaged with line ministries and CSOs for the Review of the draft National Strategy for the reduction of FGM in S/L. By engaging with stakeholders and CSOs, FAHP aims to create a comprehensive framework that prioritises education and awareness while also respecting culture.
As a way of combating FGM in communities, GraceLand - SL and Masanta Women’s Group held community engagements with stakeholders to create awareness about FGM. It is important to leverage on partnerships with stakeholders for the promotion of ending the practice. #endFGMC
Dear Partners, Thank you for a beautiful and productive year. We appreciate your commitment.
As we conclude the 16 Days of Activism and commemorate Human Rights Day, it is imperative to reflect on the need for sustained efforts to protect the rights of women and girls in S/L. FGM is a profound human rights violation. #endFGMC #EndViolenceAgainstGirls
The Forum Against Harmful Practices celebrated a significant milestone, marking ten years of dedicated efforts to FGM. This anniversary event was aptly themed "A roadmap to meaningful conversation on the review and approval of the National Strategy for the Reduction of FGM

Fostering an environment conducive to sharing alternative perspectives on gender norms and health implications, communities may gradually move away from harmful practices like FGM. #endFGMC #16DaysOfActivismAgainstGenderBasedViolence #EndViolenceAgainstGirls #fahp
Day 3! By emphasizing empowerment through alternative practices and recognizing women's roles within their communities without resorting to harmful rituals, it is possible to enjoy rich cultural heritage devoid of violence against W/Gs #endFGMC #EndViolenceAgainstGirls
Cultural norms that violate the rights of women and girls have been normalize and thus create an environment conducive for abuse. On these 16 Days of activism, we will continue to amplify our voices against actions that violates our women and girls rights. #endFGM
As we begin the 16 Days of Activism, it is critical to highlight that violence against women and girls remains a critical global issue and FGM is a severe form of gender-based violence. #endFGMC #16DaysOfActivism #16DaysOfActivismAgainstGenderBasedViolence #FAHP #highlights
The Child Rights Act 2024, is transformative Sierra Leone legislation for the fundamental rights of our children to live in safety & dignity, where their bodies are fully their own & where they can live in the full freedom to thrive. #EndViolenceAgainstGirls
It is our responsibility as a nation to safeguard the well-being of our children and development of their future; in this light, we ask that the government of S/L to pass the Child Rights Act. @EndingFGM @Purposeful_org
One thing about our Focal Officers, they take pride in their commitment to eradicate FGM in communities. F/Os play a crucial role in not only implementing interventions but also engaging with communities to Foster understanding and change. Kudos to our Focal Officers!👏🏾🎉
FAHP concluded a National High Profile Dialogue with Stakeholders’ in Port Loko. The essence of the dialogue was to underscore the review of the National Strategy for the Reduction of FGM. The engagement was fruitful and stakeholders support the approval of the strategy.
