Sini Sanuman is a Malian NGO dedicated to eradicating female genital
mutilation. In Mali, they started the Pledge Against Excision. They have
music videos on television by famous Malian artists. They've organized a
growing number of villages that have decided together to stop excising and
keep a list of other such villages to work together.

Sanuman.
