Since 2008, the UN Global Joint Programme (JP) on Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) has supported “more than 3.2 million girls and women in 17 countries” [1] The JP, a partnership between The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and UNICEF has assisted with provision of appropriate and quality services, increased community-led engagement, legal and policy frameworks, government ownership and increased access to accurate and timely data. At the same time, the JP seeks to measure the progress, quality and success of FGM programming. This is done by focusing on planning, reporting, monitoring and evaluation.

Community Systems Foundation REPORT

This 2018 CSF report to UNFPA-UNICEF outlines the objectives, highlights and key observations from the Regional Training on the Use of Data for Analysis & Evidence-Based Planning and Advocacy on FGM. In partnership with CSF technical partners, focal points from Djibouti, Egypt, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen strengthened national capacity in the “use of data, derived from national monitoring frameworks, to formulate clear advocacy messages” towards the abandonment of Female Genital Mutilation. In this regard, the workshop also enabled national, regional and global counterparts to discuss challenges and improvements “to the approach of the joint programme, particularly in terms of monitoring and reporting data.”

UN officers from Djibouti, Egypt, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen are aiming to do more with data to combat Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). UNFPA’s Arab States Regional Office (ASRO) and UNICEF’s Middle East and Northern Africa Regional Office (MENARO), collaborated closely with Community Systems Foundation, to conduct a Regional Training on the Use of Data for Analysis & Evidence-based Planning and Advocacy on FGM. The regional training was conducted in Cairo, Egypt, where five programme countries, covered by the Joint Programme in the region, were in attendance. These five countries have some of the highest prevalence rates[1] of FGM in the world.
