Forced marriage, also known as “coerced marriage,” is a marriage in which one or both parties do not freely and fully consent to the union. Forced marriage is a serious human rights violation that can have serious consequences for the individuals involved, as well as for their families and communities.

Forced marriage often involves physical, emotional, and/or sexual abuse, as well as coercion and manipulation by family members or community leaders. It can have long-lasting effects on the mental and physical health of the individuals involved and can lead to a lifetime of suffering and trauma.

Forced marriage is a global problem that affects people of all ages and cultural backgrounds. It is often motivated by a desire to control the behaviour and choices of others and may be driven by cultural, religious, or economic factors.

It is important for governments and civil society organisations to work together to prevent forced marriage and to provide support and protection for those at risk. This can include providing education and awareness campaigns, as well as offering legal and social support to victims and their families.

Overall, forced marriage is a deeply disturbing and tragic practice that must be condemned and eradicated. By working together and standing up for the rights and dignity of all individuals, we can help to create a world where everyone is free to make their own choices and live their lives with dignity and respect.
