What is Child Marriage Profile TCD about?

Chad has a minimum legal marriage age of 21 for girls, with exceptions at 18, yet over 2 million child brides exist, with 3 in 5 young women married in childhood. The prevalence of child marriage is significantly high, with 61% of women aged 20 to 24 married before age 18, and 24% before age 15. The document highlights the urgent need for progress to eliminate child marriage, as current trends indicate a negative reduction rate in child marriage prevalence.
