Child marriage is define as a marriage that involves an individual that has not attained the age of 18. The most affected persons are girls below the age of 18. Most of the times child marriage involves marriage between an adult male and an under age girl.

Various strategies have been employed to help curb the problem that is of child marriage. These strategies include:

1) Providing girls with information, skills and support networks - these strategies are crucial in helping girls to know when and how they should report cases of being coerced into child marriage. Through this, young girls are empowered to be able to support social workers  and government officials to fight child marriage.

2) Provide economic support to vulnerable families that might be inclined to give away their young girls for early marriages for economic gain.

3) Provision of community education to parents and families on the dangers and ills of child marriage. If families are taught well enough on the psychological and emotional damages child marriages have on young girls, then they will be more inclined towards supporting the government against child marriages.

4) Promoting access to a high-quality education for girls - when girls are well educated, they become more empowered and are able to fight more for their rights. 

5) Creation of better laws and policies - this, in fact, is one of the most important means of fighting child marriages. Stringent laws and policies against child marriages are means by which will ensure that few people will dare practice it.

To stop the child marriage girls should be educated and should be taught that they are not allowed to marry at such an early age, with children parents should also be educated that they should not get their children married before a certain age. 
Other than that serious actions should be taken against the people who support the idea of child marriage and they should be penalized for carrying out such acts.
There should be groups of people who are against child marriages, they should get together and should spread a word that it is unlawful for a child to get married, they can make NGO's to support this idea.
