Global Guidelines, perspectives and learnings from the DACH region.
Female Genital Mutilation/ Cutting (FGM/C) is a significant but often overlooked health, social, and human rights issue in Europe, requiring interdisciplinary action. This conference brings together professionals from the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) for the first time to exchange experiences and develop joint strategies. The event is aimed at doctors, especially those in the fields of pediatrics, gynecology and obstetrics, as well as all healthcare professionals.
