Integrating the Response to Child Marriage in East Africa Initiative
Coordinated by the Women’s Refugee Commission in partnership with Rozaria Memorial Trust and King’s College London, “Integrating the Response to Child Marriage in Humanitarian Settings” is a two-year initiative (January 2021–December 2022) to engage feminist and women-led civil society organizations, experts, and practitioners to learn how best to enhance coordination and collaboration with humanitarian actors to end child marriage and support already married girls in forcibly displaced and crisis-affected communities in east Africa.
Through participatory action research, this initiative works to identify gaps in existing practice to prevent and respond to child marriage and the needs of married adolescent girls impacted by conflict and displacement in the region. It also aims to identify promising gender-transformative approaches to prioritize effective strategies to end the harmful practice. We are working in partnership with feminist leaders to develop advocacy goals and evidence-based strategies to influence regional and national
humanitarian responses and policies that combat child marriage.
