How do we work for help Child marriage in Yemen ?

1 min read



We are so happy that we succeed in protecting 11 girls, saving them from forced child marriage and securely put them in safe places with trustworthy families.

Today, we could establish 3 secret protection shelters for minors in
#Mareb
#Taiz
#Alhudaidah

This protection was not random. girls guardians were informed of all procedures which were taken to provide protection for these girls. With the help of police, we broke marriage contracts in court and start providing them with special education.

SOON we will open the biggest safe shelter for child marriage victim girls.
I would like to thank those great guardians who responded to wisdom and logic and helped us along with those trustworthy police men all over Yemen not to forget Yemeni Women Union (YWU) for their distinguished assistance.
