Don’t let girls become brides. Sign now.

Worldwide, more than 700 million women alive today were married before their 18th birthday.

Child brides are less likely to finish school and obtain the skills that could lift them out of poverty. Their children are more likely to be extremely underweight, arrive stillborn or die soon after birth.

The key to ending child marriage? Give girls education and opportunities. UNICEF is working to do just that in communities around the world.

All girls deserve to live a happy and healthy childhood. Will you join us to end this terrible practice, and keep millions of girls safe?

On International Day of the Girl, stand up to child marriage and lend your voice by signing the pledge. Don’t let girls become brides, sign now.
