Existence of laws and/or policies guaranteeing parental support and childcare services for pregnant adolescent girls and young mothers to continue their education
Teenage pregnancy is a complex social issue often caused by human rights violations such as gender-based violence against girls, child marriage, lack of access to sexual and reproductive health services, and lack of access to education. Often these violations happen to the most marginalised girls, particularly girls with disabilities, girls living in poverty, and girls living in rural areas.
