Child marriage remains a critical issue in many parts of the world, including Kurigram District, Bangladesh. This study aims to explore the underlying causes and far-reaching consequences of child marriage in this region through qualitative research methods. By employing in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with affected individuals and key stakeholders, this research provides a comprehensive analysis of the factors contributing to the persistence of child marriage. The findings reveal that poverty, lack of education, cultural traditions, and inadequate enforcement of legal frameworks are significant drivers of child marriage in the Kurigram District. Economic hardships compel families to marry off their daughters at a young age to reduce financial burdens. Additionally, societal norms and cultural practices perpetuate the acceptance of early marriage, often viewed as a protective measure against social stigmas and economic insecurities. The consequences of child marriage are profound and multifaceted, affecting the physical, psychological, and socio-economic well-being of young girls. Early marriage often results in early pregnancies, posing severe health risks for young mothers and their infants. Furthermore, it curtails educational opportunities, limiting girls' personal and professional development potential. The study also highlights the psychological impact, including increased vulnerability to domestic violence and mental health issues. By understanding the complex dynamics of child marriage in Kurigram District, this research contributes to the broader discourse on child protection and women's rights. The study concludes with recommendations for targeted interventions, including community education programs, economic support for vulnerable families, and more robust implementation of existing laws to mitigate the incidence of child marriage. Addressing these issues requires a collaborative effort from government agencies, nongovernmental organisations, and local communities to create a supportive environment where girls can thrive and achieve their full potential.
