Female genital cutting, a tradition in transition
Demographic commentary to accompany statistics on countries
March 2013
IntroductionData on female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) has been gathered since the 1990s and informs preventative policies and programs aimed at abandonment of FGM/C and other harmful traditional practices (HTP). Data is gathered through surveys conducted in practising countries by the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) and the Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS). The World Health Organization and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) draw on these figures to provide estimates of prevalence in the countries surveyed.
The DHS surveys include specific standardised questions about FGM/C in the countries where the practice is prevalent,
including whether or not the woman responding and her daughters have been cut, the nature of the cutting and who
performed it, and the respondent’s attitudes towards the practice (UNICEF 2009, p. 14).
The MICS surveys have enquired about FGM/C since 2000, with the latest round in 2005-06 providing data for 13 countries.
Both the DHS and MICS routinely collect data on the basis of region, urban or rural residence, age, household wealth and
level of education, and increasingly on the basis of ethnicity (UNICEF 2009, p. 14).
The following is a compilation of data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) 2011 Census of population and housing
on countries designated by the WHO as practising FGM/C, with some interpretation. The countries are in alphabetical order.
