Ashley Montagu Resolution to End the Genital Mutilation of Children Worldwide; A Petition to The World Court, The Hague (1996)

The Ashley Montagu Resolution, named in honor of the distinguished anthropologist and author, Dr. Ashley Montagu, was adopted by the Fourth International Symposium on Sexual Mutilations that was held in Lausanne, Switzerland in August 1996.

This resolution addresses the human rights violations inherent in genital mutilation of non-consenting children worldwide.

The resolution will be published in its entirety in Sexual Mutilations: A Human Tragedy, the proceedings of the Fourth International Symposium on Sexual Mutilations, which will be released this Spring by Plenum Publishing Corporation.
