CGD Podcast: Tackling Child Marriage with Imran Matin and Kehinde Ajayi

2026-03-05

In this episode, I speak with Imran Matin of BRAC University's Institute for Governance and Development and my CGD colleague Kehinde Ajayi about why child marriage persists and what evidence tells us about how to reduce it. We discuss how the drivers vary across contexts, and what policies have been shown to work, including education investments, empowerment programs for adolescent girls, and cash transfers designed to delay marriage.
