The '''{{FULLPAGENAME}}''' refers to the petition to the World Court to end the genital modification and mutilation of children worldwide.

Endorsement of the petition also includes the 1989 ''Universal Declaration on Circumcision, Excision, and Incision'' which holds that medically unnecessary surgical [[circumcision]]s, [[excision]]s and incisions on male and female genitals constitute an ''act of cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment'' within the terms of Article 5 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The original endorsers include Nobel Laureate in Physiology and Medicine [[Francis Crick]] and [[NOCIRC|National Organization of Circumcision Information Resource Centers]] founder [[Marilyn Fayre Milos]]. The petition has also been signed by at least two Nobel Prize winners and [[Jonas Salk]].
