this privilege best vending the media. we get up close and personal with a girl was already on. that is determined to change based on slum office to compile raji takes all need for the town to tony, which has some things that start with a report by i'll go so viewed, the teen report to atlanta. she takes us to meet 2 young, was on beacons who have to give up on your dreams just because they got pregnant after getting married young. i'll let that sinking for a bit. any marriages in many cases synonymous with domestic violence and risky pregnancies in this case, that was i'm beacon government has been trying to tackle the situation, but it's not enough. let's find out. oh hi. my name is elena, i'm from number 2. i will continue to discuss of each episode. today we're going to

talk about the child's marriage and evil, the, to the president in my country was and because one of the highest rates of child marriage in africa, the countries of rural areas, about 35 percent of adults and skits marriage between the ages of 15 and 17 stone, we originally much of funding in september district. we have chosen why, which is why the great epicene drug or i will be talking to you that she is 20 and was married at the age of 17. 50 on. do that for me to tell us about getting my death. 17 cleaning that i got married because i was pregnant with age, but my parents told me to do so because they wouldn't be able to support my son, his food stamps. i don't think checking, i guess any school. no, i did. why did you quit school? because i did not have someone who would take care of my son and who do you like to study now? go back to school. i'm not studying but need to go back to school. i don't have

someone to take care of my son. after the teenage goes, can also be exposed to many changes, possible abuse, domestic violence, sexual trust, me to diseases and risk pregnancy. in the province of monica, len was a cup provide show to for teenagers who are victims of such practices. joanna is one of them. she was forced to marry at 16 young. i really think that i could leave this marriage. i went through a lot of silence and i didn't know that the kind of help that card was available who they gave me. i didn't know how to report to the so i suffered a lot. i don't know how it happened. god showed me the way in the association helped me and i arrived here. let me check on that again. let me see. in 2019 pleasant beach florida. march 1 unions involving my moms and punishing adults for my children at the present time of up to 12. 0, shopping kind of a teenager. i'm happy for the efforts that have been made the fight against the child's mortgages and a house one day to witness the end of this endemic problem. in my dia,

countries on elena from a hotel reporting for the w scouts of media. you know, i think it's fair to say that anything that's shots, as the dreams of any young girl needs to end, like now every minute, some 28 girls under the age of 18, a forced to marry. now, although this man is prevalent all over the world, africa is particularly affected by it. but how wide spread is it on the continent? let's take a closer look. child and forced marriage is a violation of human rights and a harmful practice. that disproportionately affects women and girls globally, around 650000000 women and girls. a live today were married before the 18th birthday. every year, at least 12000000 girls are married before they reach the age of 18. that's 28

girls every minute. in the least developed countries that nothing but double west and central africa have the highest prevalence of child marriage in the world . for out of 10 girls, they are married before they turn 18 and one in 10 is married before the 15th. the state in eastern and southern africa, around one 3rd of the regions, young women were married before the age of 18. the practice occurs among boys as well. africa is also a continent with high levels for child marriages among boys, especially across the west and central africa. tier one in 25 young men were 1st married in childhood as he just saw this, but the sticks do not look good. so why is it so difficult to control, child,

or under age mary? just and to find out more, we had to a country which is at the crossroads of central south and on east africa and talking about some of the which is one of 12 countries in the region with the highest cases of child marriage. and the rates are even higher in the rural areas. mike league fucking low, she travel took a totally in rules on the to find out the causes and the solutions. the hello very windy by the way, but we are in control of the that'd be a some to always drive away from the copy to a new socket. that'd be a, by the way, is one of 12 countries recording the most high, prevalent cases in job margin, some 29 percent right. icon for children being married off for various reasons, especially in the areas like where we are in right now. and i'm going to start off

with susan who walks with that is you. and of course we are also very involved in sensitizing groceries. communities talk 1st about the situation of child march in some. yeah, right now, what we found on the ground that he's the major closed number one is to pull the 2 levels, the pull, the 2 levels a sole high that people just simply cannot afford to provide for the children. so once a girl child reaches puberty, they feel the best way is to get her married. really, i know, of course we have met a bridget who is the director of children development at the ministry. and so if you're just going to give us a brief overview of what the actual situation is in terms of numbers as well, and why child marriage is mostly predominant in terms of numbers, i would like to say that since 2015 when the whole a, when is broke out, we will act 42 percent as a country and through the various interventions that we have done with communities

with our partners. we have come down to $29.00. why not here? was actually made off at the age of 15, by the way. right? and tell us, what was the situation like for you? what left to you a managed of that age didn't go to like because of paula to what to do and who did you want it all way you forced know wanted it. so you wanted to be married? yes. do you feel that you would still want to be might oh you would have wished a different situation for you at that age. i don't want to the mud anymore. why? why don't you want to be made animals because i am too young to be married and though sticking out of the much but they apply to is korean you are 15. is that correct? the same age that vinyl good marriage at this age would you want to be? might god say no, because of being a girl child, i believe, to say there is more to life than getting married at the very young age. one of the reasons why i wouldn't want to get married is of the health risk that i would face

up in marriage and also a violence that i would face in marriage in terms of really the lows that to buy and job marriage in the country. you have your secretary, lois, you also have you of course the money lost, but i did very much. i liked and what is really the age formatted? she is in december. okay. been know now as i speak to you under the children's code at a line when the code prohibits child marriage, it's customary i'm stuck deter. so that little was so pretend over all the laws that talk about child merrick. but you still have, you still have the communities that actually banking on day these custom or you know, us as government days, a pendant to that comes with that. uh, for example, under the uh, education act, we undertook to arrest a person who takes out a child out of school to get them into a marriage for 15 years months when they can go in for that's how i to them getting

married. is it actually the philip? yes, or this intergenerational manages better stop. and so usually you'll find in very urban setups, someone marries to do an amount of to own demand for exchange of gallery. and this is the case where you find, i mean, these are living in poverty. so there wants to be helped out of overdue. so they let their children go in order to reduce the number of feeding and also to just get some income from that. and i think where we need to start is actually change the term from child marriage because how is it making sense? it's how getting married. do you want to add something that's been is this is where children, especially goes, do get mind willingly. so these happens when they have a boyfriend, quite sure. good idea. so is it a been in school, especially those in boarding schools define thing vain school. meanwhile, the other guys plays that of the boys to and it ends up being a marriage because parents don't, once the child to bring shame to the funding, they end up being more like it made, they end up cooking cleaning and also been beaten by this. and my new problem is

the mice at the end of the day they become more like is lives better why they have degree of just so maybe they possibly have the kids that have them that in those graves? yes, yes. i think that's one of the reason is because most of the goes, i die and does my just die out of do be the best balance. so instead of them being put together some symmetry, they end up being would differently having that one. great. interesting. yes, you want to? absolutely. yeah. then the other issue that don't comment on these that visual for the government for the entry the country. so just going to see that as us or did we learn from what we see. so he has a 5 that he's married if i've got, if i have we mean, and then that then is the wife isn't for the 18 years what it means that even to, to do that to be true. so i think that is one problem that will address it. i think that is important. let me come to you my name bridget, because if children i shouldn't, emulating what they see, what i also realize is that these 2 been not exposed to images. and sermon is, when do is pretty much as early as 91112 and they've been taught how to please them

on and how to take care of a whole isn't to abuse even of uh, that is why in the to this quote uh, there is a particular specific close roof having to culture rights, traditional rights as well as religious, right? because we've seen the damage that you, that's close to the community on one to enforce this by sprint. sending the laws that provide that sort of associate economies structures are not in place really to prevent these children from getting mad or do you also agree to that? yes, i do because um, in most cases, evan in evan areas, instead of having a library, we have a lot of bugs. they end up being, having leak are engaging as, as in drugs and so on. at the end of the day, they end up being in the mountains and in homes you know it dies may have changed, but on mine, since i've known it all, that's when the my all right, let me just come to um and then bridget, yeah, because they're making very valid points in terms of also school for so that is because these kids are supposed to be in school or not. and that is just how accessible have you brought these educational facilities but you have that. so this

time schools are free. so we have, they did funds to ensure that this child does a beautiful good money transport money to get them to school. so we have that program running. oh okay. okay. let me just a minute. i'm just going to come to my level quickly. you tell me, is the government's really opposed and it's problem is that is made to children, especially to girls and the different conventions that they've signed and the policies that they have. and i know they're not, they're not. yeah. so if you knew this, my dentist scenario where the government is labeling television discussing it, has to do with that that you guys could do that alone. he's going to want to make sure that people are and i can see the interest that the government hasn't. the right tend to be no video of, of, of, of richard to deal with sensitization is key. but also as a association, if you're actually working towards disregard, do you feel getting much support from your partners and even government in driving much of resources to this go let initiative. yes, um, i believe the government is doing the part and everybody has it has to be concerted

efforts. so if traditionally does, would stand up with this plan voice against this and just send a weird because the word is low in, in, in india, in the chief domes. i believe we're going to see a lot of results. and one of the things that we've come to realize is that the, when a child is retrieved from it, from uh, from the marriage. of course, if she's not of, of school going age or if she feels she can, she can not handle school. how are we going to support that? we have what we call employment programs. so we send those to a children to go to a place where they can acquire skills. they can go get the diploma certificate we need. i don't know if i would say, yeah, i believed asian centers i childhood was taken away from. so we need this thing does after they've been retrieved from the marriage, dudley's chin, they need therapy. how to do it, the people that to some of them after their marriage. so this then does a really need that i know for like government has a lot to do apart from just as a diving and putting up ro, guns. do you think sensitization would be enough for the internet to duck with

something done? if you want to cut down a treat and to prevent it from about going back, you have to gauge it from from from that, from there would you have to put it? so imagine this scenario where a boy knows to see todd married easily, goods, it's a, it's, it's a criminal offense and it's going to be practice and delivery. did at any point. then what would the direction that is going to to, to complete, to indicate the issues of turn, right? you know that if i did speak the defense going to be 100 make of them into the better. i think that's very important discourse. what will you tell the effect goes, you're speaking to your fellow girls now, what would you tell them? um, personally, i would say been a girl child. i believe you need to cation. if you get educated, you can become who you want to be getting married at a very young age isn't a good thing. i think of in just to, to the child marriage supposed to be changed because it is something that's very serious to, to it's on every young person out there. i would say get educated and leave a better life. well, we've heard it or it is

a very serious problem that is happening in africa, especially here in zambia. i'm from what the kids have said from what you've heard from the children as well and to stay cool. that's this is not a happy situation. the government is doing so much, but there's so much more that can be done because the situation is bad and hopefully we can expect something better to come out of this. thank you so much for watching. see some of the day by the remember you're going to watch the full version of the st debates and all youtube channel. but it's clear that change is needed now. and a lot of the responsibility lies with governments in the thriving economies with a provision of basic needs. some families will not be desperate to marry off the young kids for financial benefits. like in the case of killed out in a full time. she was just 16 years old. when had grandmother might hair off to me, mine 14 years has seen the the marriage took a huge total and had teenage life and education. but it will take more than that to

break that. she's determined to take control of have future, much equal the village in north east, and that would be the places home to hold them a full time. and she was raised by her grandma, along with 6 other children, with a family struggling to make ends meet her grandma arranged for her to be married at just 16. it was a major is at the stages of my grandmother when i came for august holidays that throw myself my grandmother, say that this a mental but who came to me and then as there, which ma'am and for what and why. and then my grandmother said the man's game, and then he asked you a asked me your handing for mary as to why did you allow them into how, why do i love the men to build the house without getting it from me? hilda married a man 14 years older than herself,

but she's far from alone. according to the movie and governments almost 20 percent of golf and then it'd be a forced into marriage, compared with only just of a 4 percent of boys. surprisingly the marriage took a toll on her teenage life, and education layman was still high for me and then he never wanted me to be friends with my friends anymore. and then after school i just have to be at home and then working for him all the same. it's really felt like it's really difficult for me to do all those things. for me, it looked like it's a punishment, a punishment that even traditional list. and so this will, they're just starting to acknowledge and slowly unravel because of hulu. i say it's not good. the child's marriage, even though it's that a school, but the we can make it means that the swallow sees in this cool. so you can also come for a 1st period initiation,

then back to school. so attitudes are changing, but in her marriage, hilda was determined to make her own choices. he wanted to have children with me mother. i even saw myself very young to have children at that age. in nevada, do they think they have? he has to go to the clinic and get and get them for a family plan by doing that or know him to the clinic. i have to make sure that he showed me some more, but it was a has been frustrated by his inability to get pregnant. he'll, his marriage became even more strained. so many let us take this land. and then i as a way i decided to leave that guy, is he as full sex? and then i said, i'm on my bed and then they days left for me. so i live in court in green. i fix my things and i moved to my grandmother's house, the ill fated marriage caused till the to fall behind in her education. but now

a 21, she's back on track to finish secondary school. and one thing that i should remember is that meant that they're giving that y'all didn't them, that mendoza had deadlines that sent him to school and never to manage that fence and begin somebody because he's better incentive disclose. hilda isn't sure if she wants to get married again or have children, but one thing's for sure. next time it will be a choice. as it should be, everyone should be able to choose the life partner and decide the own future. now, if that has signed game, let's go relieve some stress in been in from beaches to history and then biggest c t clicked on a something for everyone. if you've never been that like me, then let's photo local slam artist compile raji. i see takes us on the floor of his
