This initiative aims to eradicate female genital mutilation by raising awareness about its severe health risks and human rights violations. It supports the enforcement of laws that prohibit FGM and provides education and resources to communities. The goal is to protect girls and women from this harmful practice and promote their well-being and rights.
Criminalizing female genital mutilation (FGM) is a sensitive issue addressed by the "Waai" program through educating the community about the physical and psychological harms of this practice. Efforts include organizing awareness campaigns in local communities, providing support to affected girls and families, and enforcing laws that criminalize FGM. The Ministry of Social Solidarity, in cooperation with relevant organizations, raises awareness about the importance of protecting girls from this harmful practice and promoting their health and bodily rights, contributing to achieving justice and equality and improving the quality of life for girls. Sameh Samir collaborated with the Ministry and donor institutions like the European Union and UNDP to produce visual content, including cartoons, books, animated films, and various publications, to support these efforts.
The 16-day campaign against violence against women was implemented through a series of leaflets directed to the Ministry of Solidarity to raise awareness and combat violence against women. This campaign was implemented by Sameh Samir under the supervision of the Ministry of Social Solidarity.
This international Activism aims to raise awareness and eliminate gender-based violence. Spanning from November 25 (International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women) to December 10 (Human Rights Day), it involves advocacy, education, and action to promote women's rights and end violence. The campaign unites organizations and individuals worldwide in efforts to create safer environments for women and girls.
