SPO implemented the Supporting Civil Society to Prevent and Respond to Child, Early, and Forced Marriage (CEFM) project with financial support from Save the Children from 20 December 2023 to 19 September 2025. The project aimed to strengthen civil society organizations and community structures to prevent child, early, and forced marriage while improving protection and support services for survivors.
Through this initiative, SPO strengthened grassroots civil society organizations, supported survivors, promoted legal awareness, facilitated policy advocacy, and mobilized communities to challenge harmful social norms. The project also engaged local leaders, families, and institutions to establish sustainable protection mechanisms for girls and young women.
