What is it about?

We need policies that support girls' education, especially in rural and poor areas. We should also use media campaigns to make sure all girls have access to important information. This can help girls make better choices about when to get married. This study can guide stakeholders and policymakers in crafting targeted policies and interventions to address early marriage among teenage girls in Indonesia.
