| Female genital mutilation in different parts of the African continent is considered as one of the vast territory’s social problems. This social problem which is accounted as an old tradition in different countries of the African continent has had so many unpleasant physical and mental effects on urban and rural African women during recent centuries. Throughout recent decades, considerable efforts have been made by United Nations and its dependent organizations and private institutes in order to stop or reduce the young girls circumcision rate in African continent; however, most of the indigenous population insist on this wrong tradition and proclaim that this tradition is a part of their old traditions remaining from their ancestors and its safeguard is quite important for them. In this article, the way this old tradition is conducted and the reasons underlying the action have been studied. Furthermore, the activities taking place by organizations related to United Nations and African politicians in order to confront female genital mutilation in different countries of Western Africa and their reflection in urban and rural regions have been studied through existing documents and witnesses. | ||
