Stop Child Marriages Today in Africa
Organization information
Action Change (Formerly GVI Trust)
Location: London, United Kingdom
Summary
In Africa, around 30% of girls marry before the age of 18. This contributes to high fertility rates, increased health risks, reduced educational levels and cost the countries billions of dollars in lost earnings. By providing girls with mental and educational support, as well as sustainable solutions for partners to independently earn a living we contribute to gender equality as well as quality education which will give people the opportunity to make educated decisions.
