5/ Climate change makes daily survival harder:
🌱 Drought = longer water walks
🌊 Floods = displacement & caregiving
🌾 Food shortages = more pressure on girls’ labour
Girls take on more—at home & in informal work. Often unpaid. Often unprotected. #ClimateBrides

🌍💍 Marriage as Climate (Mal)Adaptation 💍🌍
In the face of climate change, #migration is a common adaptation strategy. But did you know that marriage can also serve as a powerful — yet overlooked — response to environmental pressures? Here's how: 🧵 #ClimateBrides

4/ As climate pressures grow, so do these demands.
Girls lose time to study, rest, or play. Some families see marriage as a way to pass on or reduce that labour—a coping strategy under stress. 💁♀️⚒️🌀

3/ Girls, especially, face this burden early.
Their labour is often framed as “helping out,” rather than acknowledged as real work.
Because it’s linked to obedience & preparation for marriage, it comes without rights or limits. ⚖️

2/ What does that mean?
In many homes, work isn’t shared equally.
Women & girls do most of the unpaid care & survival labour—
Cooking. Collecting water. Caring for others. Farming.
It’s vital—but rarely recognised or protected. #ClimateBrides

Climate change is eroding safety nets, accelerating child marriage in South Asia
With collapse of education systems, girls from vulnerable families are turned into labour and an economic resource.

🚨 Families may push girls or young women into early or forced marriages to improve financial stability.
🚨 Such practices can expose individuals to exploitation, abuse, or social isolation.

(5/9) Marriage can also function as a resource-pooling strategy. By combining assets, networks & labour, married households may be better equipped to cope w/ climate shocks, crop failures, or economic instability. Marriage isn’t just a social institution — it is a strategic tool. 👩🌾 #ClimateBrides
