Global Girlhood Report 2024: Fragile Futures Girls’ Rights, Child Marriage and Fragility

As fragile states struggle to provide essential services like healthcare, education, and protection, girls face disproportionate risks. Girls face the dual threat of child marriage and fragility, as conflict, climate change, and economic instability increase their vulnerability to early marriage and rights violation

This year’s adolescent-friendly Global Girlhood Report focuses on the intersection of fragility, child marriage, and girls’ rights, revealing how crises exacerbate existing vulnerabilities for girls worldwide. The report draws on new data from Save the Children’s analysis of regions most affected by fragility and child marriage, sharing stories of resilience as girls advocate for their rights and call for stronger protections.
