520			_aBetween 100 and 140 million women worldwide have undergone female genital mutilation (FGM). While most live in sub-Saharan Africa, 5% live in African immigration countries of Europe and North America. In regions where FGM is performed, the situation varies from country to country. In some, Guinea for example, the practise is widespread and 96% of women are concerned, while in others, such as Niger, it is rare (2% of women). The prevalence of FGM is declining in these countries however. An estimated 50,000 women with FGM were living in France in 2004. A survey will be conducted to find out more about the health consequences of these mutilations and to address them more effectively.
