On the following pages, the advisory project Ending Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) provides a wide range of documents, most of which can be directly downloaded. These include GIZ publications (former GTZ publications) on relevant issues and countries and on experience derived from practical activities to end FGM.

Documents on this topic produced by international organisations, publications on FGM in Europe and information on FGM and human rights, religion and health round off the range of materials provided here. In the section on FGM and health medical personnel will find guidelines from various countries.

The website also lists guidelines available and includes contacts and links to international and national organisations and interest groups that are designed to offer a broader perspective. The ‘Contacts and links’ section also contains addresses of organisations in Germany and Europe that offer support and advice to those affected by FGM.
