Child Marriage in Ethnic Minority Communities in Vietnam: Current Situation and Solutions

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the current situation of child marriage in ethnic minority communities in Vietnam, identify its causes, and assess its impact on health, education, and socio-economic development. The research methodology includes statistical data synthesis, policy analysis, and comparison with international models. The findings indicate that child marriage remains prevalent due to cultural traditions, poverty, and ineffective law enforcement. The study proposes solutions to raise awareness, improve education, and provide economic support to reduce child marriage and promote sustainable development.
