Research on Child Marriage

CONCLUSIONS

  • The “Research on Child Marriage” project revealed that adolescent girls aspire to continue their education and work but face challenges like poverty, marriage, and lack of access to adolescent-friendly health facilities, workspaces, and education.
  • To improve the situation, policymakers should ensure equitable access to educational infrastructure, medical facilities, and vocational education centres.
  • Awareness-raising programs for parents, religious leaders, and communities are also needed.
  • Providing greater access to vocational education would help girls develop market-related skills and provide opportunities for earning incomes as an alternative to early marriage
