Ethiopian drought leading to ‘dramatic’ increase in child marriage

埃塞俄比亚旱灾导致童婚 "急剧 "增加

Drought-afflicted areas of Ethiopia are seeing “dramatic” increases in child marriage as the worst climate-induced emergency for 40 years pushes people to the brink, the head of UNICEF has said. Three consecutive failed rainy seasons have brought hunger, malnutrition and mass displacement to millions of people in the Horn of Africa, including parts of Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya and Djibouti.

联合国儿童基金会负责人表示，由于40年来最严重的气候导致的紧急情况将人们推向边缘。埃塞俄比亚受干旱影响的地区童婚 "急剧"增长。在非洲之角，包括埃塞俄比亚、索马里、肯尼亚和吉布提的部分地区，连续三个雨季没有降雨给数百万人带来了饥饿、营养不良和大规模流离失所。
