This study aimed to understand how the pluralistic legal system in Sudan affects the occurrence and circumstances of child marriage in Kassala State in the context of the current war, to inform future advoca…
Drivers of child marriage in specific settings of Ethiopia, Indonesia, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique and Zambia – findings from the Yes I Do! baseline study

These structural and…
