Ahead of the 2018 Global Partnership for Education Financing Conference, Girls Not Brides developed a brief explaining why governments must address child marriage to achieve quality education for girls.

In this brief, we recommend four actions governments can take to address child marriage:


  • Develop and implement gender-responsive education plans which target and prioritise girls at-risk of child marriage and married girls.

  • Invest technical and financial resources in strategies which prevent child marriage and support married girls.

  • Track progress on the SDGs: monitor and publish married and unmarried girls’ access to, and engagement in, education on a national level. This will highlight progress as well as areas for improvement.

  • Encourage, lead and champion cross-government strategies to end child marriage
