Abstract

According to the results of national surveys, there is a difference in child marriage rates among ethnic minority groups.

With higher education and living standards, ethnic minority women have lower child marriage rates. Ethnic minority women in rural areas have higher rates of child marriage than in urban areas. The problem is that it is necessary to actively advocate and disseminate the Law on Marriage and Family to ethnic minority areas to reduce child marriage; Investing more resources in human capital for ethnic minority girls to bring understanding and awareness to eliminate child marriage; have the power and life to be happy, safe and good in the future.
