The main purpose of this manual is to build the skills and capacities of the END FGM European Network to facilitate similar training workshops targeted to development program officers of Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), Non State Actors (NSAs), Local Authorities (LAs) and International Organisations (IOs). It is expected that the END FGM European Network will be enhanced in their capacities and skills to provide similar trainings targeting NSAs, LAs, NGOs, CSOs and IOs in their respective countries, with the final aim of raising their awareness about FGM as a crucial sector for development to be considered and included in programmes and projects focusing on gender and/or many other development areas such as poverty alleviation, reproductive health, education and human rights, among others.
