Recommendation
UPR-BCU called upon Zambia to adopt the ‘Southern African Development Community (SADC) Model Law to End Child Marriage’, amend the Marriage Act, and adopt a policy that clearly defines marriage and prohibits child marriage. JS13 noted that the strategy to end child marriage expired in 2021 and an evaluation should be conducted to assess the extent to which the strategy achieved its objectives, before a new plan is formulated.
