Centering FGM\/C as a human rights violation and a severe form of gender-based violence, the discussion will focus on the legal and protection risks to survivors of this narrative shift. Using recent developments in the United States as a case study, panelists will explore how this framing is spreading internationally and threatens global obligations to protect women and girls from FGM\/C and ensure access to justice.<\/p>\n\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n\n    \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"column-content-block\">\n\n    \n        <div class=\"container\">\n\n             \n            \n            <div class=\"columns is-multiline is-mobile is-centered\">\n\n                                            <div class=\"column is-12-mobile is-6-tablet is-3-desktop has-border-right\">\n                            \n                             \n\n                            \n                                <h3 class=\"column-title\">Who\u2019s it for?<\/h3>\n\n                            \n                            \n                                <div class=\"column-content\">\n                                    <p>Academics and thought-leaders, international and regional human rights bodies, civil society organisations, government officials, media and influencers, judiciary and law enforcement<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n\n                              \n\n                        <\/div>\n\n                                            <div class=\"column is-12-mobile is-6-tablet is-3-desktop has-border-right\">\n                            \n                             \n\n                            \n                                <h3 class=\"column-title\">When is it?<\/h3>\n\n                            \n                            \n                                <div class=\"column-content\">\n                                    <p>Monday, 9 March<\/p>\n<p>2.30PM EST<\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n\n                              \n\n                        <\/div>\n\n                                            <div class=\"column is-12-mobile is-6-tablet is-3-desktop has-border-right\">\n                            \n                             \n\n                            \n                                <h3 class=\"column-title\">Where is it?<\/h3>\n\n                            \n                            \n                                <div class=\"column-content\">\n                                    <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Salvation Army &#8211;\u00a0 221 E 52nd Street, New York<\/span><\/p>\n                                <\/div>\n\n                              \n\n                        <\/div>\n\n                    \n            <\/div>\n\n                    <\/div>\n\n    \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"theme-container-block\">\n\t<div class=\"container\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"columns\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"column is-10-tablet is-offset-1-tablet is-8-desktop is-offset-2-desktop\">\n\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n<div class=\"en-form-name\" style=\"display:none\">Event form : Resisting the Conflation of FGM\/C with Gender-Affirming Care<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":2340,"menu_order":0,"template":"","event_category":[],"class_list":["post-61993","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.5 (Yoast SEO v28.5) -
