“Change doesn’t happen to communities—it happens with them.”

In this inspiring episode of Changing Narratives, host Patricia Mars is joined by Hibo Jama and Barwaqo Aden of Nisaa African Family Services, a grassroots powerhouse supporting African refugee and immigrant communities in Iowa. With deep ties to the communities they serve, Hibo and Barwaqo open up about the emotional and cultural challenges of addressing FGM/C—and the victories they’ve witnessed along the way.

They unpack how attitudes around FGM/C are shifting, why engaging men and boys is essential and what policy changes could meaningfully support survivors. Most importantly, they share how Nisaa’s work proves that culturally-grounded care isn’t just effective—it’s necessary.

Whether you’re a survivor, advocate, ally or policymaker, this conversation will deepen your understanding and reinvigorate your commitment to ending gender-based violence

Tune in and join us in championing community-led solutions and amplifying survivor voices.
