mustbe HERCHOICE
Thanks to the Bangladesh country team, we had a beautiful inauguration of the 3-day online event '5 years Her Choice: beating the drum for child marriage-free communities!' that starts today. During this event we look back on 5 years of the Her Choice programme, together with all 30 local partners from Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, Benin, Uganda, Burkina Faso, Mali, Senegal, Ethiopia and Ghana.
We firmly believe that all trained change makers will continue to make sustainable impact in their communities. So that these girls and boys, also after Her Choice, can choose if, when and whom to marry. Still, every year 12 million girls are married before the age of 18. So let’s all continue our efforts to empower girls so that they can help build a future free of child marriage! #mustbeherchoice #EndChildMarriage
