This grant represents Canada’s institutional support to Girls Not Brides. Girls Not Brides uses these funds and other donors’ funding to achieve its mandate of ending child, early and forced marriage. Girls Not Brides is a global partnership of 1,600 civil society organizations in 100 countries. They have members in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas. They are united by a commitment to end child marriage and enable girls to reach their full potential. Project activities include: (1) raising awareness of the harmful impact of child marriage by encouraging open, inclusive and informed discussion at the community, local, national and international level; (2) facilitating learning and coordination among organizations working to end child marriage; and (3) mobilizing all necessary policy, financial and other support to end child marriage. Canada’s support to Girls Not Brides contributes to sustaining a global movement to end child marriage, and to ensure that the movement leads to tangible change for the girls at risk or affected by this harmful practice.

The expected outcomes as stated by Girls Not Brides include : (1) strengthened communities to be drivers of change, with girls at the centre; (2) increased effectiveness of governments to lead action and foster civil society participation; (3) strengthened capacity of the global community to champion and support initiatives to end child marriage; (4) increased availability of sustainable, long-term funding , especially for communities; (5) increased evidence based work to address child marriage; and (6) strengthened collective engagement through a diverse Global Partnership that is at the forefront of work to end child marriage.
