  We are very glad to share the executive summary of the evaluation report of the RISE Learning Network which was conducted earlier in October 2018. The executive summary presents the highlights of the findings and recommendations from the evaluation. The purpose of the evaluation is to establish progress against each objective and to assess if the theory of change and ways of working were effective for sharing learning and in bringing about change in policy and practice. Recommendations are made to inform future work around recovery and reintegration from child sexual exploitation. This evaluation was undertaken by an independent evaluator, Joanna Wakia and commissioned by Family for Every Child. Read More

  Child marriages, that is marrying off girls below the ages of 18 years, is common in Pakistan, especially in rural areas. Many of the child marriages are forced and the young couple are unable to develop a bonding, and the bride finds it difficult to adjust in the matrimonial bonds. Young motherhood forces her into difficult health conditions, and the children born out of such marriages are weak and require special health care. In many of the cases, the parents force the girls into marriages for reasons of property, dowry (especially in Pushtoon tribal areas), family honor, and even for money. In Pakistan, the Government passed a Child Marriage Restraint (CMR) bill that called for arrest and punishment of marriage registrar solemnizing child marriages. The Council of Islamic Ideology has denounced the CMR Bill. The Supreme Court has presently given a Stay on the Bill implementation. The citizen groups and NGOs are campaigning for implementation of the CRM Bill. Read More

One of our methods to achieve this is through the implementation of learning projects: these are small reflective practice projects which allow practitioners on the ground to undertake a piece of work, learn together with peers and share their experiences with the wider community of practice.
