Description
In the remote villages of Wajir County, northeastern Kenya, activist Mohamed Turane tirelessly works to protect girls from female genital mutilation (FGM), a harmful practice still affecting many young lives.
Through simple, honest conversations with men — from elders to fathers — Turane explains the physical and emotional harm FGM causes, encouraging them to become protectors rather than silent bystanders.
Thanks to his efforts, local communities are beginning to understand that safeguarding girls is not just a women’s issue, but a shared responsibility for everyone in the village.
