Thank you, Mr. Genuis.
The first thing I'll say is that, as a faith-based NGO, we are part of a myriad of organizations, secular or faith-based. Our unique position in both ends of the space, so to speak, is that we're able to speak to people's faith and merge our Canadian values with our faith values; they're not removed at all, in any sense.
When we get to places like Somalia, where people are very conservatively religious, or places like north Kenya, where the level of religiosity is quite high, it gives us access that other agencies may not have, and it's specifically useful when we're talking about things like FGM. When we're saying to people that FGM is bad, that it does bad things to girls and to their development, and to families and to women, and that it shouldn't be justified using theological text or imams, it's a very powerful tool.
The same applies when we're encouraging girls to go to school, when we're encouraging girls to stay in school and not be married off, from a faith lens. So it's a very powerful piece of the puzzle in terms of tackling some big, heavyweight issues that we wouldn't be able to handle without putting a faith lens on it.
