CSPII FGM INDEX draws on more data sources than other assessments of FGM, such as UNICEF’s. Here are some findings from CSPII’s FGM INDEX 2026:
◾ 297–307 million women and girls alive today have undergone female genital mutilation (FGM). This amounts to one in every thirteen women and girls alive today.
◾ 85% of this FGM is attributable to Muslim populations.
◾ Immigration from FGM-practising Islamic countries has introduced FGM to countries hitherto unaffected. There are, for example, 577,000 victims in the USA, 161,000 in Canada and 139,000 in France. In Sweden 1.3% of all girls and women are affected.
Muslim girls and women are the primary victims of FGM because Islamic doctrine supports FGM.
Many organizations combatting FGM deny any connection between Islamic doctrine and FGM. This puts at risk the lives, health and welfare of millions of women and girls since no solution is effective that does not take into account the true causes of a problem. It is our hope that CSPII’s annual FGM INDEX, by highlighting the gravity of the problem and by exposing links between Islamic doctrine and FGM, will contribute to a better understanding of the nature and causes of FGM, and thereby help eliminate this grave violation of the dignity and rights of children, and the women they grow up to be.
