Child marriage remains a significant concern in Bangladesh, according to recent data. A recent press release citing the Bangladesh Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) 2025 reveals that 47.2 percent of women aged 20 to 24 in Bangladesh were married before the age of 18. Alarmingly, 13.4 percent were married before their 15th birthday. This indicates that despite efforts to curb the practice, it continues to disproportionately affect young girls across the country. The findings, released on Tuesday, October 20th, highlight the urgent need for continued intervention and policy enforcement to protect vulnerable girls in Bangladesh. UNICEF is cited as a source for the data, emphasizing the international attention surrounding this issue. The statistics underscore the challenges in achieving targets to end child marriage in Bangladesh.
