Every year 12 million girls are forced out of education and enter into child marriage, facing the dual terrors of domestic and sexual violence. They confront significant health risks due to pregnancies their young bodies are ill-equipped for. Those who survive often find themselves trapped in cycles of intergenerational poverty.

The International Federation of Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology (FIGIJ) passionately advocates against child marriage, viewing it as a critical violation of human rights. FIGIJ stands with these forgotten children and women. We urge international bodies to unite in strengthening legal protections for children and women, and hold accountable those who undermine their futures.

This week, we commemorate two significant dates:
📌 Week for the Prevention of Unintended Adolescent Pregnancy
📌 World Contraception Day

Both remind us of the importance of providing adolescents with safe, accessible, and high-quality care, while always respecting their autonomy and their sexual and reproductive rights.

Our role as specialists extends beyond clinical care: it is about listening, guiding, and supporting, creating spaces free from stigma and discrimination, where every young person can make informed decisions about their health and future.

💜 Let’s keep building support networks, sharing best practices, and renewing our commitment to ensure that every adolescent can enjoy dignity in the present and opportunities for a healthy and fulfilling future.
