continue our research on forced marriages. I leave here some suggested reading to continue to seek his own argument:
As you have seen the size of the problem is too big and from different official bodies have attempted to deal with different results.
UNICEF, the UN agency for child protection, called attention to the problem by rewarding in 2007 featured a photo a couple of forced marriage in Afghanistan: UNICEF
awards a photograph on forced marriages in Afghanistan
UNHCR, the refugee agency, also under the UN in 2005 launched a program to prevent these practices in the camps in Chad: UNHCR

In 2006, the British government launched an initiative to reduce this practice in the UK , but not getting enough support.
On 14 April this year has been France which has launch a similar campaign. On this page of the news agency Europa Press "can see news about this decision and an opinion of Lafora Victoria. AMECOPRESS is an information page for equality that echoed the news and where they can find much information on the status of women in the world.
In Switzerland, also face the issue.
To those who think that this practice has religious roots will draw attention to the fact that Saudi Arabia has banned the practice.
