Woman Scream: Our Commitment Against Child Marriage in Brazil
Continuing our mission against child marriage, we gathered at the Legislative Assembly of the State of SĂŁo Paulo, Brazil, with partners in our cause. This event reinforces our dedication to childhood protection and the fight against early marriages, an initiative launched two years ago with a focus on schools, given the alarming increase in cases across the country.
Collaborators and allies of the 15th Woman Scream Festival (Grito de Mulher) convened in Brazil, thanks to our coordinator Soira Celestino, the festival's representative in the country, with the support of Deputy Maria LuĂsa, yesterday, at the Alesp premises.
The central theme of the event was "Child Marriage: It's Not a Game." According to research conducted by Unifecaf, Brazil currently ranks 4th globally in formal child marriagesâa statistic that underscores the urgency of this debate.
The event featured the participation of the President of Associação Manas Pretas, who joined Ednusa Ribeiro on the panel to present the organization's projects and actions. Other committed institutions also participated, such as Bibli-ASPA Centro de Cultura, which showcased its project supporting refugee women and girls through art, as well as Plan International Brasil and other allied organizations.
Also present were Professor Carlos André, an activist for children's rights and a writer, and Dr. Cleide Aparecido Vitorino, whose intervention concluded the event with a profound reflection on the necessity of combating child marriage in our society.
We extend our gratitude to all institutions, activists, and collaborators who participated in this crucial event in defense of girls' rights in Brazil.
For them, we scream...
We are Woman Scream.
