Preventing Child Marriage

Child marriage can happen as a result of requests for matrimonial dispensation and registered marriages. In addition, there are cases of unregistered child marriage.

Child marriage remains widespread. The Covid-19 pandemic is one factor that has triggered an increase in cases of child marriage.

Family poverty, unproductiveness among children and promiscuity are considered the causes of the escalating cases of child marriage during the pandemic. This condition certainly threatens the protection of children and the future of the Indonesian nation.
