Child marriage among Syrian refugees has more than doubled in the last four years according to new data released by Jordan’s court system.
War, poverty and economic instability have been major factors in the increase in under age marriage throughout the Middle East.
In 2014, 15 per cent of all Syrian marriages included a child bride. Now, it is 36 per cent, according to new figures published by Jordan’s court system.
