Efua Dorkenoo coordinated the group between 1981 and 1983 under the auspices of the Minority Rights Group (MRG), and travelled to gather facts about FGM from various countries in Africa to compile into an MRG report on the practice.〔("Tribute to Efua Dorkenoo OBE – Founder of FORWARD" ), 21 October 2014.〕 The organization runs several programmes in the UK and in East and West Africa.〔("About us" ), FORWARD; accessed 11 September 2011.〕 According to FORWARD, there are around 100,000 women in the UK who have experienced FGM.〔Bryony Gordon, ("Making trouble in the name of mutilated women" ), ''The Daily Telegraph'', 31 October 2005.〕
