What is Ending Child Marriage in Nepal about?
Nepal has one of the highest rates of child marriage in Asia, with over a third of young women aged 20-24 married before 18. The practice significantly impacts education and health, as married girls are ten times more likely to drop out of school and face higher risks of violence and early childbirth. Contributing factors include poverty, cultural norms, and the aftermath of disasters, which increase the likelihood of families marrying off their children to secure their futures.
