The publication explains key accountability mechanisms, such as treaty bodies, special procedures, regional human rights courts and national human rights institutions, and demonstrates how they can be leveraged to strengthen laws, policies and access to justice for girls at risk and survivors. Through concrete examples and advocacy strategies, the compendium supports governments, activists and partners in using human rights frameworks more effectively to hold institutions accountable, advance gender equality and drive coordinated action to end FGM.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article><\/div><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"abt-pub-wrap\">\n<div class=\"abt-pub\">\n<div class=\"cl-pub\">\n<p>Publisher<\/p>\n<p>UNFPA<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"cl-pub\">\n<p>Publication date<\/p>\n<p>Feb 2026<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"abt-pub mrg-t-32\">\n<div class=\"cl-pub\">\n<p>Number of pages<\/p>\n<p>124<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"action-blk mrg-t-32\">\n<div class=\"download-dropdown\">\n<div class=\"dropdown-select\">\n<p>                              <select class=\"pdf-document\"><option value=\"23\" data-display-text=\"English\" data-display-pdfurl=\"https:\/\/www.unfpa.org\/sites\/default\/files\/pub-pdf\/EN_FGM%20Human%20Rights%20Accountability%20Mechanisms.pdf\"> English <\/option><\/select>\n                            <\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"download-icon-holder\">\n                                                           <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.unfpa.org\/sites\/default\/files\/pub-pdf\/EN_FGM%20Human%20Rights%20Accountability%20Mechanisms.pdf\" class=\"download selected\"><\/p>\n<p>                              <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unfpa.org\/themes\/custom\/unfpa_global_redesign\/images\/icon-download-white.svg\" alt=\"Download\"><br \/>\n                            <\/a>\n                          <\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unfpa.org\/publications\/human-rights-accountability-mechanisms-end-fgm-compendium-advocacy-and-engagement?rand=6489\" target=\"_blank\">Source link <\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This document provides practical guidance for advocates, policymakers and civil society actors on how international and regional human rights systems can be used to accelerate the elimination of female genital mutilation (FGM).
