Today is International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Ge***al Mutilation (FGM).

In the 🇪🇺 EU we have ZERO tolerance for FGM and ZERO tolerance for MYTHS about FGM!

Here are some common myths that need to be busted 👊 ⬇️⬇️

1️⃣There are NO circumstances in which FGM is acceptable.
FGM is a form of violence against women and girls.
It takes away control over their bodies, their sexuality, and their right to have basic bodily functions free from infections and pain.
In short, it violates their human rights.

2️⃣There are NO types of FGM which are less harmful than others.
ALL forms of FGM cause long lasting harm to women and girls.
ALL types of FGM affect the lives of survivors, with lifelong physical, emotional and psychological consequences.

3️⃣FGM is NOT a religious practice.
There are NO religions that make it compulsory.
It is linked to traditions and customs based on family history, country and/or ethnicity of origin.

4️⃣FGM IS a problem in Europe.
It is estimated that:
✅190,000 girls and women at risk of undergoing the harmful practice in 17 European countries alone
✅over 600,000 women in Europe are living with the consequences of FGM

5️⃣ FGM is NOT only “a woman’s issue.”
It is EVERYONE’s concern.

We will continue working with survivors, affected families and communities, experts, policy makers and NGOs to once and for all!

We will support the survivors and celebrate their resilience and strength!

And we encourage both MEN AND WOMEN to play a role!

We want everyone in the EU 🇪🇺 to be able to live free from discrimination. Regardless of their gender, religion/belief, ethnicity, age, disability or sexual orientation!

Equality bodies do valuable work on preventing & tackling discrimination, but they need more resources & legal powers! ⚖️

We want to give equality bodies the power to:
☑️act in court in discrimination cases
☑️provide free services to all victims of discrimination
☑️make recommendations to governments on non-discrimination policies

50.8% percent of people with disabilities in the EU are in employment.

More than half feel discriminated against.

Last year, we published the Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities for 2021-2030. It aims to ensure that all persons with disabilities:

👨‍🦽 can make full use of their human rights
⚖ have equal opportunities and equal access to participate in society and the economy
🏠 can decide where, how and with whom they live
🇪🇺 Can move freely in the EU
🤚 are no longer victims of discrimination

The upcoming is about boosting competitiveness, participation and talent in our Union, and the 87 million people living with disabilities should not be left behind.

📌 The European Disability Card makes it easier for persons with disabilities to access services across 🇪🇺 borders. After a successful pilot in selected EU countries, we will propose an EU-wide card by the end of 2023.
