How to Stop The Rising Trend of Medicalisation of Female Genital Cutting in Asia

 

On the 20th of January at 5:00 AM, CST, Sahiyo India will host a webinar titled  ‘How to Stop The Rising Trend of Medicalisation of Female Genital Cutting in Asia.’

This event will feature a panel discussion with medical experts and gender rights activists who specialise in sexual and reproductive health.

The medicalisation of female genital cutting (FGC) is an increasing issue in a number of Asian countries; a stark lack of legislation concerning the practice has contributed to a medical normalisation of FGC.

Our panelists will explore medical perspectives about medicalisation and the current ethical debate surrounding this phenomenon, as well as touching upon the safety concerns and question of consent that underpins much of the controversy.
