Child marriage, defined as marriage before the age of 18, is a global issue that affects approximately 650 million young women and girls across continents and cultures. In the U.S. over 200,000 children under the age of 18 were married between 2000 and 2015.

The UN75 Consultation on Child Marriage will discuss the issues around this human rights violation against children and young girls, as well as actions that can be taken to accelerate progress in the elimination of child marriage.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) call for global action to eliminate poverty, to protect our basic human rights to health, education, and security by 2030. Target 5.3 specifically calls for the elimination of the harmful practice of child marriage. Failure to act on this SDG, will compromise the 2030 agenda of gender equality, economic growth, and peace and security.

In 2015, world leaders agreed to 17 Sustainable Development Goals at the United Nations General Assembly. These goals have the power to create a better world by 2030, by ending poverty, fighting inequality and addressing the urgency of climate change. With five years of achievement toward the goals, it is up to all of us; governments, businesses and civil society to work together to shape a better future for everyone.

The United Nations Association of Saint Louis is hosting its first SDG Summit to unite leaders, change makers and youth to build excitement and motivation for the decade of action. Using the signature priorities of the Forward through Ferguson report, we will create multi-stakeholder participation toward the achievement of the SDGs and mobilize the St. Louis community.
