Solidarity for African Women&rsquo;s Rights Coalition (SOAWR Coalition), this manual provides guidance on litigating cases of harmful practices in Africa with a focus on female genital mutilation (FGM) and child marriage. Although it focuses on West and Southern Africa, our hope is that it will also be used to inform advocacy and litigation more broadly.<\/p>\n<p>It aims to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Provide a situational analysis of FGM and child marriage, particularly in West and Southern Africa;<\/li>\n<li>Assess the legal and policy frameworks adopted to curb harmful practices.<\/li>\n<li>Help lawyers identify opportunities for strategic litigation and build cases around harmful practices; and<\/li>\n<li>Help lawyers identify advocacy opportunities at both the national and regional levels to ensure protection against harmful practices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!-- \/wp:list-item --><\/p>\n\n                    \n                    \n                        \n                        <div
