The '''Worldwide Day of Genital Autonomy''' (WWDOGA) is a campaign day for the [[genital autonomy]] of children which has been initiated by the German "Facharbeitskreis Beschneidungsbetroffener im [[MOGiS e.V.]]". Since 2013, it is celebrated on each 7th of May. This date has been chosen because on May 7th, 2012, the District Court of Cologne (Germany) has judged for the first time in Germany, that the circumcision of male children is an assault.

Since 2013, it is celebrated on each 7th of May. This date has been chosen because on May 7th, 2012, the District Court of Cologne (Germany) has judged for the first time in Germany, that the circumcision of male children is an assault.
  
 
In 2019, the central German event for WWDOGA in Cologne did not take place for the first time on 7 May itself, but on the following Saturday, 11 May. The organizers were able to meet the wishes of many people who had little opportunity to take part in demonstrations during the week. The participation was correspondingly higher.

In 2022, the 10th WWDOGA took place again on May 7th, which is also a favorable Saturday in terms of events.
 +
 
 +
== Demands of the WWDOGA ==
 +
* Compliance with and implementation of [[UN Convention on the Rights of the Child]] Art. 2 (protection against discrimination), Art. 3 (priority of the best interests of the child) and Art. 24, paragraph 3 (abolition of harmful customs)
 +
* Legislative initiatives worldwide that provide for the protection of all children, regardless of gender, from non-therapeutic [[Genital mutilation|genital surgery]].
 +
* Protection of children with atypical physical sex characteristics from medically unnecessary [[IGM|genital operations]] and other interventions
 +
* immediate stop of [[VMMC|mass circumcisions of boys]] as part of alleged HIV prevention in African countries
 +
* public research and education on the [[Complication|consequences of non-therapeutic genital surgery on children]] in their different forms and social contexts
 +
 
 +
== IDOGA ==
 +
In 2022, [[Ulf Dunkel]] suggested renaming the initialism [[WWDOGA]] to IDOGA, which stands for '''I'''nternational '''D'''ay '''o'''f '''G'''enital '''A'''utonomy and can also be read as "I Do GA" (for "I do genital autonomy"). The newly suggested initialism or acronym might be grippier and easier to use.

[[de:Worldwide Day of Genital Autonomy]]

Latest revision as of 09:05, 25 March 2024

Campaign logo

The Worldwide Day of Genital Autonomy (WWDOGA) is a campaign day for the genital autonomy of children which has been initiated by the German "Facharbeitskreis Beschneidungsbetroffener im MOGiS e.V.". The aim of the WWDOGA is to propagate the right of bodily integrity and sexual self-determination for all children all over the world.

Choice of date

Since 2013, it is celebrated on each 7th of May. This date has been chosen because on May 7th, 2012, the District Court of Cologne (Germany) has judged for the first time in Germany, that the circumcision of male children is an assault.

In 2019, the central German event for WWDOGA in Cologne did not take place for the first time on 7 May itself, but on the following Saturday, 11 May. The organizers were able to meet the wishes of many people who had little opportunity to take part in demonstrations during the week. The participation was correspondingly higher.

In 2020 & 2021, the German WWDOGA event in Cologne, which was to take place again on the Saturday following WWDOGA, was canceled due to the corona pandemic.[1] Daher hat MOGiS e.V. Videobotschaften der vorgesehenen Rednerinnen und Redner in seinem YouTube-Kanal[2] online gestellt.

In 2022, the 10th WWDOGA took place again on May 7th, which is also a favorable Saturday in terms of events.

Demands of the WWDOGA

IDOGA

In 2022, Ulf Dunkel suggested renaming the initialism WWDOGA to IDOGA, which stands for International Day of Genital Autonomy and can also be read as "I Do GA" (for "I do genital autonomy"). The newly suggested initialism or acronym might be grippier and easier to use.

Live contributions from Cologne

On 7 May 2022, a live demo took place in Cologne for the first time since 2019. The speeches on the Old Market were streamed live.
