Brief
Investing in data and generating and disseminating evidence on what works to prevent child marriage is essential to developing smart, effective policies and programmes that lead to large-scale change. This publications catalogue compiles research and evidence pieces published in 2020 and 2021 by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) headquarters and regional and country offices, as well as by our partners around the world. The catalogue serves as a global good for sharing knowledge, identifying gaps in research and helping to connect child marriage experts to each other.
The catalogue is also a part of the research strategy of the UNFPA–UNICEF Global Programme to End Child Marriage, which aims to improve, unify and amplify contributions to evidence on child marriage nationally and globally. The strategy aims to ensure that quality evidence can inform national and subnational policies and programmes and improve their effectiveness in preventing child marriage and supporting married girls in scalable, sustainable, rights-based and gender-transformative ways.
