Description: Bangladesh ranks in the top 10 countries with the highest levels of child marriage. 51% of young women were married before turning 18.For many daily wage earners, lockdowns further limited their incomes, forcing their migration back to rural Bangladesh. Many resorts to marrying their girl child off as a way to rid the burden on limited earnings, thereby cutting out upbringing costs, and dowry associated with late marriage.IPDC Finance jointly with AMAL Foundation introduced a Child Marriage Prevention loan at 0% interest. This 0% loan is IPDC Finance's small gesture to help eradicate this social evil, and usher vulnerable families towards a better life. Simply, by aiding them to set up a sustainable business against a pledge, "to not succumb to child marriage before the legal age of 18 and ensuring girl child avails SSC and HSC certifications."
