WHAT'S KNOWN AND WHAT'S NEXT: MENTAL HEALTH AND CHILD MARRIAGE SYMPOSIUM
We know that mental health conditions – like anxiety and depressive disorders – are among the top causes of burden of disease among adolescents. But the evidence base on the mental health consequences of child marriage is thin and suggests that few programmes focus specifically on the mental health needs of girls and women who marry before age 18.
Join us on 20th March 2024 for a half day symposium bringing together researchers, practitioners, policymakers and donors to explore the existing evidence on the mental health consequences of child marriage, and on what works to support girls who are – or have been – married.
