Chad

Sitting in the heart of sub-Saharan Africa, years of drought, famine and war in Chad has led to an isolated economy, poor education and healthcare, and a dependence on foreign aid. Early marriage is widespread—70 per cent of girls marry before age 18. Child brides often drop out of school and face life-threatening complications from bearing children before their bodies are ready.
