Farzana Doctor is a Toronto-based Registered Social Worker who has been working with individuals and couples since 1993. As a consultant and educator, she has supervised and taught clinicians about LGBTTTIQ issues, anti-oppression and FGM/C.
She is also a founding member of WeSpeakOut.org and the End FGM/C Canada Network. She has written four critically acclaimed novels. Her latest, Seven, which Ms. Magazine described as “fully feminist and ambitiously bold”, addresses FGM/C in her Dawoodi Bohra community and was inspired by her experiences as a survivor and activist.
