This report highlights the need for data collection to assess the prevalence of the practice of female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) in Asia. Besides data on prevalence and the types of FGM/C that .are practiced in the Asian region, the report provides information on the impact and severity of these practices upon girls and women. Some of the recommendations are to scale up the provision of flexible, accessible and sustainable funding, capacity-building and networking support for community-based organisations and activists (for donors) and to determine legislation to criminalise all forms of FGM/C (for governments).
