I was fortunate to attend the recent symposium in Helsinki and was greatly encouraged by the presentations. Here are some of the highlights:
David Smith, a symposium host, NORM UK General Manager and Chief Officer of Genital Autonomy emphasized the outreach that is going on between his and other organizations in the UK, specifically support and counseling groups for victims of FGM. MGM victims are acting as trainers for staff so that operations can be expanded to support both men and women.
