Child Marriage Evidence Profiles

Strategic Technical Assistance for Research (STAR) initiative to end harmful practices

About

Robust evidence is essential to inform programming, policymaking, and advocacy aimed at accelerating efforts to end harmful practices. This collection of country evidence profiles presents an overview of the evidence base on child marriage in each country, including key drivers of the practice, its patterns and trends, the consequences for girls and their communities, and programmes and interventions to prevent and respond. The briefs aim to strengthen the knowledge base for targeted, context-specific action to end child marriage.
