ForwardUK – Videos about FGM

ForwardUK works in the UK, Europe and Africa to safeguard girls at risk of FGM and support women affected. They do this through direct community engagement, advocacy and strategic partnerships. These videos were produced as part of ForwardUK’s projects:

The True Story of Ghati and Rhobi: A five minute animated film aimed at raising awareness of female genital mutilation (FGM). It tells the inspirational story of two girls (Ghati and Rhobi) resisting their community’s practice of FGM. They show courage by saying no to a practice that they heard would be painful and that some girls die from. With the help of community elders, they change the way their community treats a girl’s transition into womanhood by ending the practice.

My Body My Rules (2015): FGM Animation: A three minute animated film aimed at raising awareness of female genital mutilation (FGM) amongst primary school aged children in the UK.

Break with Tradition, End FGM: The pain of being cut and the trauma of having something stolen from you – female genital mutilation (FGM) affects 140 million women worldwide. In this video the viewers meet young women dealing with having been cut.

Girls at Risk: Discussion Tool

This is a discussion tool video to be used in conjunction with the series “Untold Stories in a Time of HIV and AIDS” which aimed to build and train a community of new voices to write, produce and make local content programs. Although a regional series, it was made up of nine separate local films. Each partner organisation produced one film with its own distinct local voice. The films were produced in local languages, but the series as a whole was sub-titled into English (in Mozambique the whole series was sub-titled into Portuguese).

This tool consists of a twelve minute DVD with extracts from five films in the Untold series, and a discussion booklet, which highlights the risks of ordinary young women and girls in a world of HIV & AIDS.

GoodLife Ghana Game Show

This game show was designed as a centerpiece of the GoodLife Ghana Project.

GoodLife Ghana was part of the Behavior Change Support (BCS) Project, and was conducted from September 2009 to September 2013. It was designed to assist Ghana Health Services by addressing five key health areas: Family Planning, Maternal and Child Health, Malaria, Nutrition and Water and Sanitation.

The Game Show was open to all Ghanaians who could text their name to the game show managers. Five contestants were chosen for each episode, in which the host tested the knowledge of contestants and audience members on project-related health topics addressed through the GoodLife campaign. The show was extremely popular with viewers from the start, garnering the first and second highest ratings of any show in its timeslot. The winner was awarded a cash prize.

Four seasons of the game show were broadcast from June 2011 – August 2013.
