Women fleeing from conflict in Sudan receive mental health support in Egypt
Hanaa is one of the 250,000 refugees who have crossed into Egypt, fleeing the deadly conflict in Sudan.
See how UNFPA-supported safe spaces are providing psychosocial support to women affected by this devastating humanitarian crisis.
Female genital mutilation
Female genital mutilation is a practice that involves altering or injuring the female genitalia for non-medical reasons. Internationally recognized as a human rights violation, it is estimated that some 230 million girls and women globally have undergone some form of female genital mutilation. Although the practice is declining in the majority of countries where it is prevalent, most of these countries are also experiencing a high rate of population growth – meaning that the number of girls who undergo female genital mutilation will continue to grow if the practice continues at current levels.
