Abstract:
The association between marital status and coronary artery disease (CAD) is supported by numerous epidemiological studies. While divorce may have an adverse effect on cardiac outcomes, the relationship between divorce and severe CAD is unclear. We conducted a multicenter, observational study of consecutive patients undergoing coronary angiography during the period between April 1, 2013, and March 30, 2014. Of 1,068 patients, 124 (12%) were divorced. Divorce was more frequent among women (27%) compared to men (6%). Most divorced patients had been divorced only once (49%), but a subset had been divorced 2 (38%) or ≥3 (12%) times. After adjusting for baseline differences, there was no significant association between divorce and severe CAD in men. In women, there was a significant adjusted association between divorce and severe MVD (OR 2.31 [1.16, 4.59]) or LMD (OR 5.91 [2.19, 15.99]). The modification of the association between divorce and severe CAD by gender was statistically significant for severe LMD (Pinteraction 0.0008) and marginally significant for CAD (Pinteraction 0.05). Among women, there was a significant adjusted association between number of divorces and severe CAD (OR 2.4 [95% CI 1.2, 4.5]), MVD (OR 2.0 [95% CI 1.4, 3.0]), and LMD (OR 3.4 [95% CI 1.9, 5.9]). In conclusion, divorce, particularly multiple divorces, is associated with severe CAD, MVD, and LMD in women but not in men.

Abstract:
Marriage is a contract that justifies a man and a woman, with a marriage contract to build a happy and prosperous family. The marriage process has been regulated in Law Number 1 of 1974 that every marriage must be carried out according to religious provisions and must be recorded. But what about the marriage law for women who are divorced outside the religious court, according to Law Number 1 of 1974 and according to Islamic Law? Because in practice, there are also marriages that are carried out without recording so that they do not have a marriage certificate. Similarly, the occurrence of divorces that are not carried out in front of the Religious Courts, so they do not have a divorce certificate or certificate. For women who are divorced without having a divorce certificate who will enter into a new marriage. So, to legalize the marriage, one must apply for a marriage isbath for divorce.

Abstract:
The study was conducted to explore the lived experiences of divorcees, children of divorce, and the coping strategies they employed in dealing with their situations. This is a qualitative study that adopted descriptive phenomenological approach. A total of 20 respondents comprising 14 divorced women and men, 6 children of divorcee were used in the study and sampled through snowball and purposive sampling techniques. Data was gathered using semi-structured interview, and focused group discussion guides. The study revealed that the divorcees experienced physical, mental, social and financial problems. Children of the divorcee significantly experienced stress, emotional pains, sorrow, and worry about their condition. Again, the study revealed that divorcees and children of divorcee faced many consequences, they were not aware of availability of counselling services that could help them. It was recommended, among others, that divorcees who are mostly single parents must be given marital counselling and/or post-traumatic stress management. Again, the establishment of community-based counselling centres in the Asogli state for this purpose would be laudable. Finally, the District Assembly, traditional rulers in the Asogli state, Civil Society Organisations, and government agencies should offer care and support services to divorcees and their children including scholarships to children from divorced homes.

Abstract:
Some social commentators and social scientists have called for the strengthening of divorce laws, a call based, in part, on the apparently strong economic advantage marriage holds for women and their children. We focus on the question of whether divorced women would experience the same absolute levels of economic well-being by staying married as women who remain married experience. We also examine the argument that all women are economically vulnerable once marriage ends by examining whether the average married woman would, if she were to divorce, experience the same low levels of economic well-being as divorced women do. Using longitudinal data from the National Survey of Families and Households, we estimate endogenous switching regression models that simultaneously predict the odds of divorce and subsequent economic well-being for women who divorce and for those who remain married. Our calculations show that if divorced women were to remain married, their economic well-being would improve substantially but would not attain the level of women who remain married. We also find that if married women were to divorce, their average level of economic well-being would be about the same as that of divorced women, supporting the view that women's economic vulnerability outside of marriage is ubiquitous.

Abstract:
Background/Aim: The high divorce rate in Indonesia has an impact on the number of divorced women. In Indonesia, women with divorced status are still stigmatised, whereas the stigma and perception of divorced women in the community are still skewed. The formation of a negative stigma from the community makes women who experience divorce face many problems that can increase stress and make women psychologically disturbed. To overcome the conflict experienced, individuals have a coping mechanism as a way to defend themselves against changes that occur both within themselves and from outside themselves. The purpose of this study was to explore the sources of stress and coping mechanisms for stress in divorced women in Cirebon Regency, West Java, Indonesia. Methods: This research was qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. The research participants amounted to 8 women with a divorce status of less than 2 months who experienced mild and moderate stress in dealing with the new status of divorce in Cirebon Regency. The selection of research participants used a convenience sampling technique. Data collection methods using in-depth interview techniques and administering questionnaires perceived stress scale (PSS) to determine a person's level of psychological stress. Data analysis in this study used the Colaizzi method. This study identified two themes, namely the sources of stress of divorced women and coping mechanisms for stress built in divorced women. Results: Sources of stress included social status, negative stigma from society, the process of raising children without a husband, economic factors , fear of facing life in the future and relationships with ex-husbands and their families. These various stresses did not prevent divorced women from continuing their life process. This was because of the coping mechanisms made by divorced women so that the stress they experience did not harm their lives. These coping mechanisms included self-management, enjoying the process, diverting problems, telling other people about problems , strengthening spirituality and self-reflection. Conclusion: Divorced women struggle with numerous stressors. It is necessary to strengthen positive coping mechanisms and to overcome stigmas and prejudices in society towards divorced women.

Abstract:
Abstract “Gray divorce,” or divorce which occurs in later life, is rapidly becoming more common in the United States. The purpose of this grounded theory study was to examine the lived experience of getting divorced in mid to later life. Data address the following research questions: 1) What are the divorcees’ expectations for the process of divorce and post-divorce life? 2) How do life phase factors and family relationships shape the divorce experience? Participants included 41 heterosexual men and women who legally divorced at the age of 55 or older and between 1-7 years from the time of the interview. Participants divorced from first and higher order marital unions. They included self-identified initiators, non-initiators, and co-initiators of the divorce. Results suggest that gray divorce is a complex experience marked by shifting feelings of ambivalence and certainty that are influenced by such factors as health and social networks, especially family.

Abstract:
This article compares reasons for divorce among two groups of Arab women: regular divorcees, who divorced after living with their husbands, and contract divorcees, who divorced during the waiting period between the signing of the marriage contract and actual cohabitation. The regular divorcees reported more reasons for divorcing than the contract divorcees and were considerably more prone to cite their husband’s physical, sexual, and verbal abuse; lack of commitment to the marriage and family; and alcoholism and mental illness, as well as interference by their in-laws. The contract divorcees were more prone to cite failure to get along, lack of communication, and conflicts over traditional and/or modern lifestyle. These patterns suggest that the regular divorcees divorced for more concrete reasons and only after their marriage had become unbearable, whereas the contract divorcees ended their unions when they realized they would not find compatibiity, communication, and a shared lifestyle.

Abstract:
he paper explores the stress level and the coping resources utilized by divorced women in the Maldives. While the study is designed as a quantitative investigation, the general objectives are not to generalize findings but to gain an understanding of divorce demographic and coping strategies of women after divorce. The Taylor’s manifest anxiety scale was used to assess stress, and a second questionnaire assesses divorcees’ current situation and their coping strategies. Both the questionnaires were self-administered by 60 participants identified through snowball sampling strategy. The findings show that divorced women exhibit notable psychological stress, with 46.7% of the participants having high stress, 51.7% having low stress and only 1.7% exhibiting no stress. While other unknown stressors in their life cannot be ruled out, the findings suggest that better socioeconomic, cognitive and emotional resources such as education, employment, adequate finance including child maintenance from the father of the child, emotional support from immediate family as well as friends have a positive impact on reducing stress. Contrarily, the findings also show lack of employment, rental expenses, dependency on an external party for child maintenance support, the uncertainties of a new romantic relationship, and the experience from a painful divorce process can have a negative impact on psychological wellbeing. Furthermore, in adjusting to life after divorce, most of the participants seek financial independence through upskilling and employment, while some divorced women seek remarriage for financial and emotional security.

Abstract:
The divorce–stress–adjustment theoretical framework emphasizes not only the negative consequences associated with marital dissolution but also the positive outcomes that can eventually emerge after former spouses part ways. This study aims to examine the subjective life assessments of the heterosexual gray divorced population within the first 3 years of their marital splits with respect to this framework. Qualitative data based on 66 in-depth interviews of the gray divorced population were collected and analyzed using grounded theory methods. Negative consequences of gray divorce included financial worries and loneliness. However, participants also identified positive aspects of their new lives, including higher levels of overall happiness, liberation from their ex-spouses, and enhanced independence and freedom. These results show that immediately after their marriages dissolve, members of the gray divorced population experience complex reactions in accordance with the divorce-stress-adjustment framework. More specifically, these men and women see both challenges and opportunities after their gray divorces.

Abstract:
The article presents the results of an empirical study on changes in the system of a woman's relations after a divorce, which can be manifested both in a woman's self-attitude and in her attitude towards a man; divorced women, compared to married women, have a higher percentage of non-optimal self-attitude and negative attitude towards men, divorced women with and without a child after a divorce have got differences not only in the percentage of non-optimal self-attitude and negative attitude towards men, but also in the connection between them. We have conducted our research and received the following results. Divorced women, as compared to married women, have a higher percentage of suboptimal self-attitude and negative attitude towards men. The assumption that divorced women with a child after a divorce have got a higher percentage of non-optimal self-attitude and negative attitude towards a man than women without a child after a divorce was not confirmed, while the assumption of a less close connection of self-attitude and attitude towards a man was confirmed. For the first time, an empirical study was conducted that allows us to study not only the features of self-attitude and attitude to a man in women after divorce, but also the relationship between them. The results obtained in the study can be used by psychologists working with women who are divorced. The development of an optimal self-attitude in such women will not only increase adaptive capabilities, but also contribute to a change in attitude towards a man, which ultimately can be a positive factor in creating a new family.

This thesis aims to assess the supporting role social networks provide to divorced Saudi women who face after divorce challenges. After reviewing the impact that online social networks have on Saudi society and the legal context of divorce in Saudi Arabia, this study explores key issues faced by divorced Saudi women using a qualitative approach. Upon reviewing the limited amounts of literature and following two methodological phases, the key findings are: (1) identifications of primary challenges faced by divorced Saudi women namely; social, economic, psychological, and legal issues; (2) extraction of themes based on each identified issue, leading to the identification of four qualitative models; and (3) assessment of the supporting role social networks have in the identified themes of each issue.

Abstract:
AbstractMany old adults are faced with the risk of social exclusion, which inhibits them from enjoying a satisfactory quality of life. Accordingly, understanding this multidimensional and multifaceted complex phenomena is crucial for building an inclusive society. Hence, studies concentrating on vulnerable groups with higher probability of economic forms of exclusion, such as widowed or divorced materially deprived women, are valuable as exclusion necessitates different actions for different segments of the older population. Against this background, this chapter investigates resilience and coping mechanisms of materially deprived widowed and separated/divorced older women. Data is taken from a qualitative study in Turkey and Serbia, two EU candidate countries with different enabling environments and social protections for older people, but with a similar level of connectedness within extended families. Semi-structured in-depth interviews with materially deprived divorced and widowed women, aged 65 years and older were conducted. The data was analysed based on the framework method. The analysis identifies the economic exclusion experienced by these women, along with the resilience and the different coping mechanisms that they demonstrate. Furthermore, it makes a cross-country comparison between Turkey and Serbia laying out similarities and differences between the two nations on this topic.

Abstract:
Abstract Continued rapid population growth in rural areas is a major challenge to future land access for all in Ethiopia. Landlessness is growing and farm sizes shrinking. This tends to erode the constitutional right of all rural residents without another livelihood option to access land for subsistence. With the recent land laws also stipulating minimum farm sizes, this also restricts inheritance rights of children living on small farms. It also restricts the opportunity to share land equally among spouses upon divorce. Co-management of land among divorced parents and children on small farms is also challenging. The result may be disguised fragmentation. Given the growing landlessness and inheritance rules and the need for alternative livelihoods for youth, we may wonder whether women are at a disadvantage in non-farm employment. Recent studies of a large sample of resource-poor rural youth that have been eligible to join youth business groups and have been allocated rehabilitated communal lands have female members that on average have fewer assets, lower incomes and less education than male members. They are also much less likely to own a mobile phone and to become group leaders or group board members. This shows that young women in Ethiopia continue to be disadvantaged and are among the most resource-poor and vulnerable. There is a need for more targeted policies to give them equal opportunities in the ongoing rural as well as rural-urban transformation processes.

Abstract:
This study aims to examine the life history of migrant women who have experienced divorce in a socio-cultural context. Five people participated in the study, and they have been living in self-reliance support facilities since their divorce. They were selected from interviews on the life history of 80 married migrant women, which were funded by the Korea Research Foundation from 2017 to 2019. The method of research is a life-historical case study. The results of the study are as follow; first, their marriage was to escape gender hierarchy and poverty in their home country. Therefore, it was confirmed that marriage migration took place within the transnational trend of feminization of migration. Second, self-reliance support facilities provide strong social support for divorced migrant women. As a result, it works as an important space that allows them to escape from voluntary self-exclusion and explore new subjectivity. Suggestions of the implications are as follow; the social support from self-reliance support facilities after divorce is a driving factor that is the subjective and active effort of single-parent migrant women. Discussions should continue that those who are free from the spouses of the people can live as practical and public citizens of Korean society.

Abstract:
The study examines the influence of socio-demographic determinants, particularly marital status and educational attainment, on disparities in overall and cause-specific mortality in Moldova. Material and methods: Based on the depersonalised databases of death records, which include detailed ICD-10 cause-of-death data categorised by marital status and educational attainment, we analysed mortality patterns for the population aged 30 years and over during two periods around the 2004 and 2014 censuses. Absolute and relative differences in standardised death rates with 95% CIs were calculated. The reference groups were the married population and the population with higher education. Results: Significant differences in all-cause and cause-specific mortality according to marital status and educational level were found for both sexes. Particularly vulnerable groups included divorced men, never-married women and men and women with primary education or less. Marriage and higher education had a protective effect on mortality for both sexes. In 2013-2014, the difference in life expectancy at age 30 between divorced men or never-married women and their married counterparts was more than 12 years. The difference between those with higher education and those with primary education or less was more than ten years for men and nine years for women. Mortality disparities associated with marital status and education were most pronounced among young adults and decreased with age. Conclusions: Targeted preventive measures aimed at reducing mortality among vulnerable subgroups are essential, focusing on risk factors associated with infectious and respiratory diseases, liver cirrhosis and external causes of death.

Abstract:
Background: The issue of violence in couple relationships is perceived from the perspective of integrative ecological model, while informal environment of women is considered one of multilateral phenomena influencing women?s strategies when addressing violence in couple relationships. Methods: The objective of the paper is to describe informal environment of women living in violent couple relationships. As many as 44 women participated in the research, aged 22 � 65. Most of them reached secondary education and almost 60% of them were divorced. Most of them worked full-time, two of them were on retirement pension. Two of them were childless. The data was collected with help of a questionnaire and a semi-structured interview and further processed by the method of qualitative thematic analysis, based on the phenomenological approach. Results: The results show the supporting and hindering factors in informal environment of women living in violent couple relationships. The supporting factors are understanding, support and help provided by all family members. The hindering factors are lack of faith in what women go through, lack of understanding, unwillingness to help, and indifferent attitude of family members. Conclusions: The results show that it is important to recognize the supporting and hindering factors in informal environment of women in violent couple relationships not only when setting up the effective assistance provided by formal or informal helpers, but also when setting up effective strategies for public policies.

Abstract:
Background: The issue of violence in couple relationships is perceived from the perspective of integrative ecological model, while family situation is considered one of multilateral phenomena influencing women?s strategies when addressing violence in couple relationships. Methods: The objective of the paper is to describe a typical situation in a family where violence is present in couple relationships. As many as 44 women participated in the research, aged 22 � 65. Most of them reached secondary education and almost 60% of them were divorced. Most of them worked full-time, two of them were on retirement pension. Two of them were childless. The data was collected with help of a questionnaire and a semi-structured interview and further processed by the method of qualitative thematic analysis, based on the phenomenological approach. Results: The results show the supporting and hindering factors in family situations. The supporting factors are availability of one?s own housing, employment, good health, and good relationships beyond family. The hindering factors are unavailable and/or unstable housing, lack of finances, complicated access to shared finances, debt, execution, bad relationships in family and beyond, and bad health of family members. Conclusions: The results show that it is important to recognize the supporting and hindering factors in family situations not only when setting up the effective assistance provided by formal or informal helpers, but also when setting up effective strategies for public policies.

Abstract:
Introduction: This study presents the experience of psychological care to women with breast cancer, attended at the Advanced Breast Diagnosis Center (CORA), Hospital das Clínicas – UFG, under supervision. Objective: The aim of this study is to describe the phases of greatest psychosocial impact in the treatment of patients and family members. Methodology: The service to EAS was started in November 2017 after, 43 years old, divorced, and provider of three minor children, receiving the diagnosis of phylloid tumor, intense anguish, fear of death, emotional lability, conflicts family and socioeconomic status, presenting a distorted perception of identity. She was mastectomized and underwent chemotherapy and a new surgery in 2018, after a recurrence of sarcoma in the sternum bone, at which point she went into palliative care. Psychological, digital, and social-technical resources were used until her death in May 2020. Results: An improvement was observed in the coping strategy, resolution of family conflicts, recovery of affective bonds and their identity, with the distribution of tasks of the children, and improvement of the family dialogue, including the desire to grant the guardianship of the children to her brother. Discussion: It is necessary to have a systemic look at the patient who arrives at the public hospital. Considerations: This experience was enriching due to the relevance of the role of psychology and its interventions with the multidisciplinary team, promoting a significant improvement in the psychological well-being and quality of life of the patient who arrives with real and imagined suffering aggravated by the disease and treatment.

Abstract:
Divorce is the legal dissolution of a marriage by a court. Since this is usually an unpleasant outcome of a marital union, each party may have reasons to call the decision to quit which is generally documented in detail in the court proceedings. Via a substantial corpus of 17,306 court proceedings, this paper investigates gender inequality through the lens of divorce court proceedings. To our knowledge, this is the first-ever large-scale computational analysis of gender inequality in Indian divorce, a taboo-topic for ages. While emerging data sources (e.g., public court records made available on the web) on sensitive societal issues hold promise in aiding social science research, biases present in cutting-edge natural language processing (NLP) methods may interfere with or affect such studies. A thorough analysis of potential gaps and limitations present in extant NLP resources is thus of paramount importance. In this paper, on the methodological side, we demonstrate that existing NLP resources required several non-trivial modifications to quantify societal inequalities. On the substantive side, we find that while a large number of court cases perhaps suggest changing norms in India where women are increasingly challenging patriarchy, AI-powered analyses of these court proceedings indicate striking gender inequality with women often subjected to domestic violence.

Abstract:
This paper studies the link between television and divorce in Brazil by exploiting variation in the timing of availability of the signal of Rede Globo -the network that had a virtual monopoly on telenovelas in the countryacross municipal areas. Using three rounds of Census data (1970, 1980 and 1991) and controlling for area fixed effects and for time-varying characteristics, the paper finds that the share of women who are separated or divorced increases significantly after the Globo signal becomes available. The effect is robust to controlling for potential determinants of Globos entry strategy and is stronger for relatively smaller areas, where the signal reaches a higher fraction of the population.

Full text
Abstract:
This CREID Policy Briefing provides recommendations to address the marginalisation, discrimination and exclusion faced by Yazidi women in Bashiqa and Bahzani. Yazidi women in Bashiqa and Bahzani today are still living through the trauma and consequences of the genocide committed by the Islamic State (ISIS). In addition, they face a range of further challenges as marginalised women from a minority religion. While more Yazidi girls and young women are progressing in education, harmful social norms, customs and practices – originating from both wider Iraqi society and the Yazidi community itself – create barriers for Yazidi women who want or need to work outside of the home, access healthcare or engage in public life. Widows and divorced women face specific challenges as they are seen as without male protection. Yazidi women also face the stigma that comes from being a former captive of ISIS, and the discrimination that comes from being judged an “infidel” due to their religion.

Gandelman, Néstor. Female-Headed Households and Homeownership in Latin America. Inter-American Development Bank, January 2008. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0011262.

Full text
Abstract:
The gender of the household head has often been treated as an exogenous determinant of homeownership. This paper argues that several determinants of homeownership also affect household headship and that failing to explicitly account for this endogeneity leads to inconsistent results. Using individual level data for Chile, Honduras and Nicaragua, the paper shows that although on average women have lower probability of being homeowners, women who head households (single, separated or divorced) have a greater probability of attaining homeownership. Thus household level analysis should control for the endogeneity of household headship in order to properly address the gender effect on housing tenure. Estimating a bivariate probit model, the paper finds evidence that femaleheaded families have a lower probability of owning their home in Latin American countries. Without the endogeneity control this result was not present in eight countries.

The Effects of Social Assistance Interventions on Gender, Familial and Household Relations Among Refugees and Displaced Populations: A Review of the Literature on Interventions in Syria, Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), March 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/basic.2022.011.

Full text
Abstract:
This literature review aims to explore the evidence on the effects of social assistance on gender, familial, and household relations and power dynamics among refugees and (internally) displaced populations in Syria, Iraq, Jordan, and Lebanon. It examines the findings from an intersectional gender perspective allowing the authors to build on the knowledge of ‘what works’ in interventions in general and hopefully improve gender equality and social inclusion. Out of 1,564 papers initially identified and screened, 22 were included in the final stage. A question that emerged as the papers were analysed was whether the arduous work of targeting individuals was efficient or necessary, given that the available evidence suggests that beneficiaries generally tend to share their stipend with other family members for the collective good. Most studies tended to conflate gender with women and girls – making distinctions between widowed, married, unmarried and divorced women – but ignoring other dimensions such as class, health status, religion, ethnicity, education, prior work experience, political affiliation, and civil participation. Many programmes and research fail to disaggregate data. Social assistance programmes focus on individuals and households, with little attention to the wider context and overall conflict. Most studies paid negligible attention to familial infrastructures and strategies for sustainable interventions. Access to, and use of, cash transfers are part of broader familial strategies to mobilise or increase resources including, for example, (male) migration in pursuit of remittances, or (female) dependency on ‘community charity’. Short-term cash transfers can, in some circumstances, disrupt individuals’ and families’ access to more sustainable income or ‘charity’. Thus, important questions are raised about the purpose of social assistance: does it aim to preserve or transform families through targeting?

Agüero, Jorge M. Causal Estimates of the Intangible Costs of Violence against Women in Latin America and the Caribbean. Inter-American Development Bank, August 2013. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0011490.

Full text
Abstract:
Violence has a striking gender pattern. Men are more likely to be attacked by a stranger, while women experience violence mostly from their partners. This paper estimates the costs of violence against women in terms of intangible outcomes, such as women's reproductive health, labor supply, and the welfare of their children. The study uses a sample of nearly 83,000 women in seven countries from all income groups and all sub-regions in Latin American and the Caribbean. The sample, consisting of 26.3 million women between the ages of 15 and 49, strengthens the external validity of the results. The results show that physical violence against women is strongly associated with their marital status because it increases the divorce or separation rate. Violence is negatively linked with women's health. The study shows that domestic violence additionally creates a negative externality by affecting important short-term health outcomes for children whose mothers suffered from violence. To obtain the child health outcomes, the study employs a natural experiment in Peru to establish that these effects appear to be causal. Finally, the paper presents evidence indicating that women's education and age buffer the negative effect of violence against women on their children's health outcomes.

Full text
Abstract:
Past research has provided evidence of the role of some personal characteristics as risk factors for depression. However, few studies have examined jointly their specific impact and whether country characteristics change the probability of being depressed. In general, this is due to the use of single-country databases. The aim of this paper is to extend previous findings by employing a much larger dataset and including the country effects mentioned above. The paper estimates probit models with country effects and explores linkages between specific environmental factors and depression using data from the 2007 Gallup Public Opinion Poll. Findings indicate that depression is positively related to being a woman, adulthood, divorce, widowhood, unemployment and low income. Moreover, there is evidence of the significant positive association between inequality and depression, especially for those living in urban areas. Finally, some populations characteristics facilitate depression (age distribution and religious affiliation).

Child marriage briefing: Zambia. Population Council, 2005. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/pgy19.1005.

Full text
Abstract:
This brief provides an overview of child marriage as well as the particulars of child marriage in Zambia. This landlocked southern African nation is home to 10.9 million people, with 47 percent of its population under age 15. Zambia is one of the poorest countries in the world; nearly two out of three Zambians live on less than US$1 a day. The country’s economic growth was hindered by declining copper prices and a prolonged drought in the 1980s and 1990s. More recently, the AIDS epidemic has taken a devastating toll: 920,000 adults and children are living with HIV/AIDS, and 630,000 children have been orphaned because of the disease. Child marriage is widespread in Zambia, even though the legal age of marriage is 21 for both males and females. Customary law and practice discriminate against girls and women with respect to inheritance, property, and divorce rights. Domestic violence is a serious problem, with over half of married girls reporting ever experiencing physical violence and more than a third reporting abuse in the past year. Included in this brief are recommendations to promote later, chosen, and legal marriage.

Child marriage briefing: Mozambique. Population Council, 2005. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/pgy19.1003.

Full text
Abstract:
This brief provides an overview of child marriage as well as the particulars of child marriage in Mozambique. Mozambique, in southeastern Africa, is home to 17.5 million people, with 45 percent of its population under age 15. More than three-quarters of Mozambicans live on less than US$2 a day. The HIV/AIDS epidemic has had a devastating effect on the country; approximately 1.3 million adults and children are living with HIV, and 470,000 children have been orphaned because of AIDS. Life expectancy has fallen to 34 years, among the lowest levels in the world. Mozambique has one of the most severe crises of child marriage in the world today. Several local women’s rights groups have begun speaking out about this issue and were instrumental in ensuring the passage of the recent Family Law, which raises the minimum age of marriage for girls from 14 to 18, allows women to inherit property in the case of divorce, and legally recognizes traditional marriages. However, little capacity exists to implement the law. Included in this brief are recommendations to promote later, chosen, and legal marriage.
