|Text=[ | |Text=In June 2019 the Finnish government established a government program with a gender neutral aim on [[genital autonomy]] for children: | ||
* "The government will ensure sufficient resources for the work against [[genital mutilation]]." and | |||
* "Intersex children's right to self-determination will be strengthened and cosmetic, non-medical surgeries on young children's genitals will no longer be performed." | |||
The government program was re-established in December and the same wording remained. In November, the [https://stm.fi/en/frontpage Ministry of Social Affairs and Health] and the [https://thl.fi/en/main-page Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare] published a new action plan named "[[https://thl.fi/en/research-and-development/research-and-projects/non-violent-childhoods-action-plan Non-violent Childhood]]" with reference to the government program. | |||
In chapter 14, the action plan has specific goals on all children's [[genital autonomy]] which conclude that non-medical genital cutting of children can be carried out only when the person[s] themselves can give to it, based on a full understanding of the procedure. | |||

The best way to curbe genital cutting for a particular group of children is to curb it for all children, regardless of their sex, cultural background or other attributes. A family where both parents have had self-determination over their body and their genitals, probably have the best possible pre-requisites to value and cherish the importance of leaving their own child with the same self-determination over [his] body. | |||
Best regards from Finland for the [[WWDOGA|Worldwide Day of Genital Autonomy]]. | |||
