Missouri 🇺🇸 raised its marriage age to 16. It may be progress, but at 16 children cannot enter domestic violence shelters ⚠️, rent property 🏠, sign contracts 📃, file for divorce or hire a lawyer 👩��⚖️ #RaiseTheAge to 18 to help #endchildmarriage 🔞 https://t.co/nYD4CXWZOD

To respond to sexual violence, late in 2017 UNFPA established the first One-Stop Centre that provides comprehensive services for survivors of gender-based violence. The centre has managed more than 300 cases and prosecuted 32 cases, with two convictions. https://t.co/n0q4DmkjS8

The day a girl is married, her entire future is compromised.

Will you take a stand with us against child marriage?

This prime minister needs to come and mentor South Sudan MP's who get 40thousand $ for just car while the citizens have no proper education, health facilities etc..

[Karel van Oosterom @KvanOosterom]

This is one of the reasons I am proud of the Netherlands - the way our Prime Minister goes to work.

It's been a while..

[UNFPA South Sudan @UNFPASouthSudan]

Worldwide, #ValentinesDay is a romantic time for couples. Yet millions of children are coupled up before they are ready. In South Sudan, 40% of girls are married before 18 and only 6.2% of girls complete primary school.
