Summary[edit]

Description

International actress and Plan International Girls' Rights Ambassador, Freida Pinto, called for more progress in the drive to abolish the practice of child marriage when she spoke at Girl Summit 2014 this summer.

"I think about the fear a girl child faces when she realises the man she has to marry is older than her father. What if that was me? I'm scared to think about that as a possibility for myself."

Ahead of the Girl Summit, the "Slumdog Millionaire" actress joined #YouthForChange – an event by youth, for youth to kickstart a movement for girls’ rights, with a particular focus on ending female genital mutilation and child, early and forced marriage.

On 22 July 2014, the UK government and UNICEF hosted the first Girl Summit, aimed at mobilising domestic and international efforts to end female genital mutilation and child, early and forced marriage within a generation.
