TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - A case history based assessment of female genital mutilation in Sudan JO - Evaluation and program planning A1 - Gray, Charlotte Schiander SP - 429 EP - 436 VL - 21 IS - 4 N2 - The subject of female genital mutilation is discussed through a selection of excerpts from a narrative derived from interviews with educated Sudanese women. The original interview form ensures an inside, contextual presentation of the subject, providing the clues for approaches towards elimination of the practice. With evaluation and planning strategies in mind, the issues are placed in the conceptual framework of the segregation of the sexes and viewed through the ideas of gender-based discrimination as outlined in CEDAW.
