About

The Global Youth Consortium (GYC) against Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is a youth movement with representation in 55 countries with the sole vision of achieving a world free of female genital mutilation by 2030. The Consortium (GYC) Structure works closely with UNFPA-UNICEF Joint Program on the Elimination of FGM to ensure that young people are meaningfully engaged in the advocacy against FGM. Through advocacy, partnership, and lobbying, the consortium is disrupting social norms and creating safe spaces for women and girls.
