A $15m Lifeline to End Female Genital Mutilation The launch of the Her Horizon Fund, seeded with a substantial $14 million from the Wallace Global Fund, marks a major breakthrough in the fight against female genital mutilation (FGM).
The new fund aims to pool $100 million from donors to create momentum towards ending FGM within a generation.
This goal seems increasingly elusive, but this injection of funding is a much needed lifeline for frontline activists and survivors working tirelessly to eradicate the practice.
