International day for Zero Tolerance to
Female Genital Mutilation
Date: 7th February, 2018
"With the dignity, health and well-being of millions of girls at stake, there is no time to waste. Together, we can and must end this harmful practice." — UN Secretary-General António Guterres.
Female Genital Mutilation a sensitive topic with almost no awareness, we decided to do an online campaign. In an attempt to have increased awareness amongst the masses, we had this project in action for three days beginning from the 5th February until the 7th February 2018.
Three JPGs and accompanying whatsapp messages were created and circulated on various club and non-club groups over 3 days, 5th, 6th and 7th February 2018. The message was forwarded on Facebook & various whatsapp groups.
It helped immensely to create awareness about this issue. The messages were particularly sent to medical students and brainstorming them about the management of such cases.

Even our volunteers were very intrigued by the concept and messaged to ask about the details of the campaign.
