Soroptimists believe that child marriage is often the result of deeply entrenched gender inequalities. We, vouch for educating girls and crafting them to lead -marriage is a deterrent to those aims. Child marriage threatens the lives, the well-being and the future of girls. We Believe to Achieve a reversal of this situation by 2030. #16daysofactivism when we #Orangetheworld
Norms and stereotypes around gender roles and marriage age keep the practice of child marriage alive. UNICEF has declared child marriage is a form of violence against a child. Child marriages can increase in humanitarian crisis such as the current pandemic. Soroptimists will fight against this violation of Child rights and for the education of girls so that they develop their full potential. #16daysofactivism when we #Orangetheworld
