Increased penalization is giving more power to perpetrators and men to control women by manipulate girls for their own benefit.
(Following from fornication laws)

"The law is protecting a patriarchal power in the family and in the faith."

"Penalization is an insufficient long-term solution. Being liable for fornication if not validly married, results in increased pressure for young children to pursue child marriage."

There are large numbers of child marriages in Pakistan where the incidences occur in refugee communities to secure identification.

In Sri Lanka, @ssa_lanka observes that midwives play a significant role in noting occurrences of marriages in a given area. There is potential to leverage the position of such leadership roles in education & awareness about #ChildMarriagesInSouthAsia in communities. #FIRESpeak
.@worecnepalorg supports young people involved in #ChildMarriagesInSouthAsia by not turning them over to the police, even though the act is criminalised in Nepal. Instead, they make available safe houses where youths can stay until they reach the age of marriage. #FIRESpeak
#FIRESpeak Why do girls drop out early?
Dropping out of school is a common reason for girls getting married early. So why are girls dropping out? Does a law fix these problems?
#EmpowermentNotAge is a campaign that questions if the legal route is the best way to delay marriages for girls in India.
@aagrabakijasmin @Hidden_Pockets @PLD_India @CRYINDIA @childnotbride @SpeakUpandFight @ChildRightsCnct @ChildRightsIRL @chante_MKS @grubbysocks @fsahat We hear you 😓but even though the context does look grim, we must continue to mobilize, demand & push for redress of the structural & systemic inequalities that negatively impact the rights of women, adolescents, girls, trans, non-binary people, & other marginalized groups!
What do adolescents really need?
#ChildMarriage #FIRESpeak #Decriminalization #ChildMarriagesinSouthAsia
MYTH 8: Raising age of marriage for girls & criminalization will prevent child marriages.
REALITY: Given the context of marginalization, adolescents need better access to resources to make informed decisions regarding marriage. They need support. Not criminalization.
#FIRESpeak
I stumbled upon many of these myths when I lived in an anti trafficking shelter for my PhD research in 2014. My conversations with "child marriage victims" residing there led to this paper: https://t.co/gAHT7EfBbt #FIRESpeak
