Feminist movements thrive when they are resourced.
We are proud to be supported by the African Women’s Development Fund @awdf01 - through the #KomboaReziste initiative as we strengthen feminist solidarity, wellbeing, and collective action in The Gambia.

Because when women meet, organize, and lead, transformative change happens.
The future of gender justice depends on strong feminist movements.

This is why solidarity matters.
Strong movements are built through collaboration, trust, collective care, and shared action - not competition and isolation.

Yet growing anti-rights backlash, attacks on feminist voices, and shrinking resources threaten hard-won gains and movement sustainability.

Across The Gambia, feminist organizations, activists, survivor-advocates, and young feminists continue to defend rights, challenge injustice, and advance gender equality.

As anti-rights backlash grows and funding shrinks, solidarity means more than hashtags - it is centering survivors, amplifying women and girls, challenging harmful narratives, and funding feminist-led work.
Rights and justice need sustainable investment. #FeministBantaba #EndFGM

Feminist solidarity isn’t just a feeling, it’s an action.
From everyday acts of care to loud advocacy, every effort counts in building a fairer world.

The last two years have been particularly challenging for the fight against #FGM in The Gambia. However, we remain steadfast in our goal to create a world free from harm for all women and girls. #Invest2EndFGM #EndFGM220
In The Gambia, the law against #FGM has been under threat despite the known harmful effects of the practice. We call on @AssemblyGambia and @JudiciaryGambia to maintain the FGM law for the protection of women & girls. #Invest2EndFGM #EndFGM220 #EndFGM

The pain of FGM does not end when the wound heals, sometimes it does not heal at, girls and young women carry this pain in every stage of their womanhood, complications at during pregnancy and childbirth, and infections that burden our already fragile health care system #EndFGM

Today, we remind all stakeholders of the importance of our work ro #EndFGM and the equal importance of #Invest2EndFGM. With continued commitment and #ZeroTolerance, we can certainly achieve this goal.
It's #ZeroToleranceDay for FGM. Equals Now joins the call for sustained commitment and investment as we believe in safe spaces for women and girls. We reaffirm our commitment to keep pushing to #EndFGM. #EndFGM220 #Invest2EndFGM

FGM is a Human Rights violation and is unacceptable and must stop. All women and girl deserve SAFETY, DIGNITY & JUSTICE #EndFGM #EndFGM220 #Invest2EndFGM
Over 2 million girls are exposed to FGM annually. We asked our members what #ZeroToleranceDay means to them and the response was resounding:
Safety, Dignity & Justice for all women and girls.

Standing with victims of FGM, female genital mutilation is cruel but exposing a tiny baby to baby to such a gruesome act should not go unpunished
We are saddened to learn of the FGM related deaths of two infants. FGM is a human rights violation with severe consequences for women & girls. As always, we stand with survivors & call on the State to take relevant action to ensure a violence free world for women & girls. #EndFGM
