Where can you turn, as a young girl in Bougainville in Papua New Guinea, when your cousin brothers and relatives want to force you to marry a man twice your age?

The first phase of the project, implemented by the Nazareth Centre for Rehabilitation and International Women’s Development Agency (IWDA), has drawn to a close. Findings from the end of project report (released in July 2018) will inform phase two.
