Frequently Asked Questions

Born Whole is an independent, open-source advocacy platform connecting parents, doctors, lawyers, advocates, and the public with the organizations and information working to end forced genital cutting of children.

Born Whole is an independent project with no affiliation to any single organization. It is maintained by volunteers and open-source contributors who share a commitment to children's bodily autonomy.

The Ask the Knowledge Base feature uses an AI language model that answers questions based exclusively on a curated set of plain-text files sourced from featured advocacy organizations. It does not use the open internet and will tell you if it cannot find relevant information.

Born Whole is open source and welcomes contributions from everyone. You can add FAQ entries, submit events, improve organization listings, or contribute code — all via GitHub. Visit the Get Involved page →
