The UN entity also called on Liberians to make sure that they do not turn their backs on the millions of women and girls who have been affected by FGM. The advocacy against female genital mutilation originated on December 20, 2012, after a U.N. General Assembly resolution was reached calling on member states to identify global efforts to eliminate female circumcision and raise awareness against the practice. The resolution recognized female circumcision as a violation of the human rights of women and girls reflecting deep-rooted inequality between the sexes and constitutes an extreme form of discrimination against women.
