Empowering Africa’s Children: World Vision Presents Child‑Friendly AU Convention on Ending Violence Against Women and Girls

A society that allows children to go to bed hungry violates not only economic logic, but basic human rights.

This is a child friendly version of the Africa Union Convention on Ending Violence Against Women and Girls.

World Vision is influencing the adoption and implementation of policies relating to FGM in Kenya, Sudan, Somalia and Sudan. The policy brief highlights strategic policy recommendations targeting national governments, regional institutions donors faith and community leaders.

Despite escalating conflict, climate shocks, economic instability and widespread displacement, we reached over 26 million people, including 16.4 million children

The funding crisis risks undoing decades of progress to end FGM. Global actors are urged to invest more and scale up efforts to stop this human rights violation.
