A girl in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia #united_nations_foundation #ethiopia #fighting_child_marriage #hunger_and_hope A girl attending a gathering in the rural village of Bahir Dar to discuss the positive benefits of a United Nations Foundation program that provides their families with a pregnant ewe in exchange for letting their daughters wait until their 18th birthday to decide on their own marriage options instead of being married off as young as eight years old. During this time the girls attend school, learn basic life skills, discover their rights, and so begin to fight the cycle of poverty and hunger. WHAT MAKES THIS PHOTO GREAT?
