Child Marriage in FR Africa
Child marriage in Francophone Africa: Challenges and opportunities for Girls Not Brides members
Session Description
Girls Not Brides members and National Partnerships from Francophone Africa are invited to learn from one another about the ways they have worked together to advocate for action in their respective countries. The discussion will reflect on our contributions to the regional and global movement to end child marriage, and how we can strengthen the existing solidarity among Francophone members. Government representatives from Francophone countries in Africa and donors with specific interest in these countries are also welcome.
