The Research Action and Information Network for Bodily Integrity of Women (RAINBO) started this Small Grants Project in 1995 in order to provide modest funds and technical assistance to African non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that might not otherwise have access to mainstream sources of funding. The main objectives of the project are: to support effective and innovative projects that combat Female Circumcision (FC)/Female Genital Mutilation (FGM); to strengthen the institutional capacity of African NGOs working on the FC/FGM issue as part of advancing the sexual and reproductive health and rights of women and girls; and to expand collaborative relationships among NGOs, activists, academics and researchers in Africa.
