Recommendation 18
18
Vital FGM grassroots organisations face limited funding due to complex and competitive application processes.
Conclusion
Grassroots organisations, often run by FGM survivors from the affected communities, perform vital work in supporting FGM survivors and combatting FGM. However, they receive limited funding, must compete against one another, and can lack the capacity or expertise necessary to secure funding in complex application processes. (Conclusion, Paragraph 59)
