Sahiyo is excited to announce, in collaboration with the Asian Women’s Shelter and Silence Speaks, will be hosting a parallel event at the 69th Session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW69), taking place from March 10 to 21, 2025, at the United Nations Headquarters in New York.
Our event titled, Storytelling as a Tool for Female Genital Mutilation/ Cutting (FGM/C) Survivor-Centered Change, will feature a selection of compelling stories from our Voices to End FGM/C program, showcasing the resilience and courage of survivors. We will explore our storytelling approach and its effectiveness in advocacy and support for survivors of FGM/C, providing insights into how these narratives have been utilized to drive systemic change.
We look forward to connecting with individuals dedicated to ending FGM/C and those eager to learn more about this critical issue. See event details below!
