Januba Begum (12) at risk of child marriage.
Januba is only 12-year old child but is going through a high risk of child marriage. She studied up to grade two three years ago but her schooling stopped since her parents feel it is unsafe to send her outside of home. She is the only daughter among six siblings. She fled Myanmar along with her family to escape brutal attack by the Burmese military. They took shelter at the makeshift settlement in Cox’s Bazar. Her mother has fallen sick recently and so Januba does household work to help her family.
