14/ This isn’t just about marriage.
It’s about inequality, labour, care, climate—and whose work is valued when crisis hits.

(7/9) To fight child marriage, we have to fight the systems that allow it to thrive under pressure.
That means confronting gender norms, unpaid care work, masculine expectations—and the climate crisis itself. #ClimateBridesMap #GenderInequality

(6/9) But let’s be clear: climate change doesn’t cause child marriage. It deepens the cracks patriarchy already created. And it turns injustice into policy, into practice, into fate. #ClimateBridesMap #GenderInequality

(5/9) In #Bangladesh, child marriage surged after Cyclone Amphan.
In #Nepal, drought and male migration have pushed girls out of school and into marriage.
Climate hits, and gender decides the fallout. #ClimateBridesMap #GenderInequality

(4/9) When families lose crops, homes, or income: Girls are married to reduce “burden”. Boys are pushed to earn. Marriage becomes a way to cope with loss and fear. #ClimateBridesMap #GenderInequality

(3/9) Girls are taught to be modest, obedient, marriageable.
Boys are raised to be providers and protectors. These roles aren't just cultural—they’re survival scripts. And climate shocks make them more rigid. #ClimateBridesMap #GenderInequality

(2/9) In South Asia, gender inequality shapes everything from access to food and education to control over decisions. ⚖️ When crisis strikes, these inequalities don’t pause—they accelerate. #ClimateBridesMap

☘️🌐 We're launching the #ClimateBridesMap series.
We begin with Gender Inequality—because it is not just a backdrop, it is the system that decides who gets protected in a crisis and who gets married off. Let’s break it down. @cam-repro.bsky.social @reetiks.bsky.social @doremai.bsky.social (1/9)

We also exhibited our #ClimateBridesMap and showcased our recent film made on the @climatebrides.bsky.social podcast. Special shout out to @doremai.bsky.social for her compelling artwork! 🌻 Watch the film: youtu.be/apeZrp0GylA?...
