According to data from the Indonesian Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection, child marriage is a widespread practice in Indonesia, with approximately 1 in 5 girls married before the age of 18. This translates to around 2.3 million girls who are married off as children every year. The provinces with the highest rates of child marriage are those with high poverty rates and limited access to education, such as Papua, East Nusa Tenggara, and Maluku.
