Introduction

Norwegian Church Aid has designed a holistic resource to prevent and respond to child marriage within existing Gender Based Violence programs, focusing on humanitarian settings. ENGAGE is grounded in a Theory of Change developed from a literature review of existing evidence-based interventions and consultation with stakeholders including adolescent girls.

The toolkit includes:

  1. An Implementation Guide Explicit instructions for how to implement the ENGAGE program including assessment, planning, implementation and monitoring and evaluation.

  2. The Curricula Prevention and response activities targeted at specific community members in order to change harmful social norms plus support girls experiencing or are at risk of experiencing CEFM.

  3. A Training Package Tools to support the initial training and ongoing capacity building of staff responsible for implementing the ENGAGE program.
