REPORTAGE - Projekt 'Brides Of The Sun'
Brides Of The Sun. Majuma Julio is 17 years old and lives on the edge of the town of Moma in Nampula Province on the east coast of Mozambique. She was living with an uncle in the town when she married Juma Momade, 21, two years ago when she was 15. They have a one and a half year old daughter, Fatima Juma.. The Brides Of The Sun reporting project was set up to investigate a link between child marriage and climate change, focusing on two countries – Malawi and Mozambique – where nearly half of girls are married by the age of 18.
Poverty and tradition have made child marriage a fact of life around the world, but public awareness campaigns and legal bans should by now have curbed the rising numbers of child brides. Instead, particularly in rural areas, the numbers remain stubbornly high. It seems that there has to be another factor in play: climate change. Rising temperatures and irregular rainfall have brought more drought and flooding. Families once able to feed themselves have seen harvests fail. Their solution has been to marry off their daughters. And nine months later, there the girl sits, sheltering her new-born baby from the blazing sun, wondering how it ended up this way.

REPORTAGE - Projekt 'Brides Of The Sun'
Brides Of The Sun. Carlina Nortino is 15. Her husband Horacio Manuel is 16. They were married when she was just 13. He promised her father MT 1,500 ($25) for her hand in marriage. The couple live in the village of Nataka in Larde district, Mozambique. Their first child was still-born earlier this year.. The Brides Of The Sun reporting project was set up to investigate a link between child marriage and climate change, focusing on two countries – Malawi and Mozambique – where nearly half of girls are married by the age of 18.
Poverty and tradition have made child marriage a fact of life around the world, but public awareness campaigns and legal bans should by now have curbed the rising numbers of child brides. Instead, particularly in rural areas, the numbers remain stubbornly high. It seems that there has to be another factor in play: climate change. Rising temperatures and irregular rainfall have brought more drought and flooding. Families once able to feed themselves have seen harvests fail. Their solution has been to marry off their daughters. And nine months later, there the girl sits, sheltering her new-born baby from the blazing sun, wondering how it ended up this way.

REPORTAGE - Projekt 'Brides Of The Sun'
Brides Of The Sun. Fatima Mussa is 16 and nine months pregnant. She is the oldest of seven children, six of them girls. She lives in Nataka, in the district of Larde, near the coast in eastern Mozambique. She married 18-year-old Priorina Manuel Antonio when she was 15. He had offered her father MT 2,000 ($33). The high levels of poverty in the district meant there was no party or gifts for the young couple.. The Brides Of The Sun reporting project was set up to investigate a link between child marriage and climate change, focusing on two countries – Malawi and Mozambique – where nearly half of girls are married by the age of 18.
Poverty and tradition have made child marriage a fact of life around the world, but public awareness campaigns and legal bans should by now have curbed the rising numbers of child brides. Instead, particularly in rural areas, the numbers remain stubbornly high. It seems that there has to be another factor in play: climate change. Rising temperatures and irregular rainfall have brought more drought and flooding. Families once able to feed themselves have seen harvests fail. Their solution has been to marry off their daughters. And nine months later, there the girl sits, sheltering her new-born baby from the blazing sun, wondering how it ended up this way.
