Together for Change - A Decade of Fighting to End Female Genital Mutilation in Europe

25th of November 2024

Registration for End FGM EU KNOWLEDGE SHARING EVENT 2024 in Berlin, Germany

Please register for this year’s End FGM EU Knowledge Sharing Event (KSE) on the 25th of November 2024 in person in Berlin.

The 2024 KSE will relate to the End FGM EU Campaign #FGMIsPatriarchy, framing FGM as a form of Violence Against Women and highlighting how it symbolically impacts all women beyond those affected directly. For this reason, the event takes place on the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. The event will feature interactive activities, key note addresses and panel discussions that explore the intersection of FGM and patriarchy, and how this form of violence against women is perpetuated by patriarchal systems and beliefs. The event will also highlight the progress made by the End FGM EU Network and its member organizations in advocating for the rights of women and girls, and the ongoing efforts to end this harmful practice. A particular focus will be placed on good practices happening at national levels and promoting the transferability of these practices across Europe. Overall, the 2024 KSE aims to facilitate collective learning and strengthen the capacity, outreach, and sustainability of End FGM EU and its members.

We are excited to invite one representative per member organization (full and associate members) to attend and participate in the event.  Costs related to their participation (travel, accommodation, subsistence) will be covered. We take care of the hotel and subsistence arrangements. Accommodation will be covered for two nights, if needed.  Travel arrangements need to be made by the representatives in close coordination with TERRE DES FEMMES, since we must not exceed specific budget amounts. For this purpose, kindly forward your flight budget arrangement to us and wait for final approval. Members within Germany are encouraged to travel via land. Travel expenses will be reimbursed after the event.

WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO WELCOMING YOU IN BERLIN!

Please fill in this form by Monday, 14th of October 2024.
