The World We Want: End Child Marriage




Every year, approximately 14 million girls are married before they turn 18, robbed of their rights to education, health and a life free of violence. Child marriage undermines our efforts to build a healthier, safer, just and more prosperous world for all. Child marriage isn't just a problem for girls, it's a problem to the world.

We can #Endchildmarriage but we need your support! Change will happen if we demand governments to declare the minimum age for marriage. Join the movement to #Endchildmarriage. Please visit our blog http://ayodejiosowobi.blogspot.com to see more of our work.
