Amongst the identified/evaluated global solutions to end child
marriage how much of the focus should be on C4D/social and
behavioural change communication vs. for instance service
delivery? What’s the balance?
Amongst communication initiatives in place, are we implementing
the ‘right’ ones? How do we measure and know we are doing the
‘right’ thing?
Whose behaviours would we like/need to influence to increase
our results for girls and to end child marriage? [Religious
leaders? Girls?]
