01. Capacity Building

We support their institutional strengthening, jointly with these NGOs, develop a common action plan with a focus on developing their skills around advocacy, documentation, data use and resource mobilization. Along with a common action plan the Alliance is providing customized support to these NGOs based on their specific needs. It facilitated information, skills, and group formation with girls in combination with community mobilization and advocate for the eradication of child marriage and greater involvement of women and girls in promoting sexual and reproductive rights.
02. Evidence Gathering
The Alliance developed a vulnerability assessment tool for identifying girls potentially most at-risk of getting married based on some pre-determined criteria (school drop-out, orphan, etc). The Alliance used the tool with the CSOs to pilot this tool and build capacity of the Village Child Protection Committees and adolescent groups to use this tool which can help in tracking children who are most vulnerable. Jointly with the CSOs the Alliance documented all the different approaches to prevent Child Marriages that have been tried by organizations in different settings which can then be used by other organizations to inform their advocacy work on Child Marriage prevention.
