Show Notes

In this podcast Regional Director Asia Bushra Zulfiqar speaks about why girls get married early; what can be done, what is being done to address this issue and the challenges Terre des Hommes encounters to arrive at a child-marriage-free Asia. Globally, each year, 12 million girls are married before the age of 18. This is 23 girls every minute and one girl every three seconds. These are staggering numbers... Listen to the efforts made to improve the lives of young girls. Besides that, we also speak about Diversity & Inclusion in the workplace. Music by Merlijn Angad Gaur / Musical Minutes
