Message on Ending Child Marriage: Dr. Natalia Kanem, UNFPA Executive Director

March 25, 2020

Statement by Dr. Natalia Kanem, UNFPA Executive Director, on ending child marriage.

UNFPA aims to achieve three world-changing results by 2030, the deadline for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. These are: Ending unmet need for family planning, ending gender-based violence including harmful practices such as female genital mutilation and child marriage, and ending all preventable maternal deaths. COVID-19 pandemic could critically undermine progress made towards achieving these goals.
