Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Social Work, grade: 1.7, Protestant University of Applied Sciences Ludwigsburg, course: Gender and Social Development, language: English, abstract: In this paper I want to take a closer look at Bangladesh in particular, and look at the laws that are made considering child marriage, the causes and consequences of child marriage. I want to get a better understanding of the cultural reasons and the problems of the country that lead to this. Furthermore I will look at the views and attitude of the people affected by this, and look at all the possibilities as to what needs to be changed, how we can help and how it is important for social work. Child marriage is very common today and it undeniably has a lot of negative affects. Of course, in most of these countries the practise of child marriage is prohibited. Unfortunately, these laws often do not have a big impact. The lack of impact of these laws are highly related to cultural and religious traditions. It is mostly common in South Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, followed by Latin America and the Caribbean, East Asia and the Pacific, and finally Europe and Central Asia. Out of all of these regions, Bangladesh with 65%, has the second highest rate of child marriage after Niger.

One-third of the world's girls are married before the age of eighteen, limiting both their educational and economic potential. Child marriage is damaging to global prosperity and stability, yet despite the urgency of the issue, there remains a significant lack of data on the subject. Senior Fellow Gayle Tzemach Lemmon discusses both the factors that contribute to and strategies that have proved effective against child marriage.

This brief has provided a basic profile of child marriage in Bangladesh. Measures of child marriage are still high. The share of women ages 18-22 who married as children has declined over time, but remains substantial at 59.4 percent. The share of girls marrying very early, before the age of 15, has declined too, but also remains high at 22.9 percent. Child marriage is associated with lower wealth, lower education levels, and a higher likelihood of work without cash earnings. These are however only correlations, not necessarily causal effects.

With an introduction by Eimear McBride A devastatingly powerful, moving and uplifting memoir - now a classic of its genre - that inspired others to tell their own true life stories. When our stepfather staggered home reeking of whisky, ceramic hit the wall. We got used to the smash and the next-day stain, but eventually the wallpaper began to fade . . . For Andrea Ashworth, home is not a place of comfort and solace, but of violence and fear. Her father died when she was five, leaving her close-knit, loving family to battle with poverty, abuse and the long shadow of depression. But from the ashes of 1970s Manchester and the hardships of her coming-of-age in the late 1980s, Andrea finds the courage to rise . . . Written with eye-opening honesty, rare beauty and intense power, Once in a House on Fire is a ground-breaking memoir, endearing in its humour and compassion, and life-affirming in its portrait of terrible circumstances triumphantly overcome.
