For two indigenous girls in Guatemala, early unions spell the end of dreams

In Guatemala, the prevalence of girls in marriage or union before age 18 is 29.5 per cent, above the 25 per cent rate in the Latin American and Caribbean region. UNFPA and the Population Council works with partners to end the practice with programmes like Abriendo Oportunidades (above), which has helped girls stay in school and delay marriage and childbearing. © UNFPA Guatemala
