According to estimates, Belgium has 23,000 women circumcised and 12,000 girls at risk of being circumcised. The Group for the Abolition of Female Genital Mutilation (Gams) raises awareness of the two treatment centers for victims of female genital mutilation (FGM) accredited in Belgium. 

This seminar aims at analyzing the state of play in Belgium in terms of prevention and protection of child victims or at risk of FGM and promoting the thinking about the implementation in Belgium of a protocol for the prevention and protection of such persons.
