A research agenda to strengthen evidence generation and utilisation to accelerate the elimination of female genital mutilation

This resource outlines evidence gaps and research priorities that need to be addressed to eliminate female genital mutilation (FGM) over the next five years. The resource describes the different types of FGM and provides core background information. It also provides approaches to enable uptake and effective use of the evidence generated. Recommended approaches are based on a global evidence review on the effectiveness of interventions designed to prevent or respond to FGM over the past decade.
