We also heard from experts working to end child marriage in Malawi, India, Guinea, and Tanzania. Their leadership shows us that change is possible for our girls when we come together and demand a better future. pic.twitter.com/8GigVNQkrn

Michelle Obama, Amal Clooney and Melinda French Gates have joined forces to end child marriage within a generation.

At the current rate, the UN says it'll take 300 years to end it. But Obama told the BBC it's "an issue that can be solved tomorrow."https://t.co/q2iDX1IYbQ
