Struggling to reduce early marriage continues

HEVIDAR HARANI – HIZA HASAN / KOBANÊ

Social and intellectual backwardness negatively affects society, especially women, which has enslaved them and seen them as a machine for procreating children and limiting their role in the service of men and doing housework and to exercise constant domination over them.

As a result of this social backwardness, which sees that girls should be married at an early age and that men have the right to marry 4 women and use them as a machine for procreating children, a sick society has developed where there is not any right to women.

In order to reduce this phenomenon, Kongra Star is trying through its laws to raise awareness of the society and train it as it increases its activities within the community to solve social problems.

Rojava revolution brought with it the freedom of women

After the revolution of Rojava, many changes took place in the life of women. Women became aware of their rights, established their existence and took their place in all the aspects and places, whether in institutions or on the front lines, and became self-governing. However, many women still suffer from the injustice of society which continues to exercise authoritarian mentality. The marriage of girls at an early age and polygamy continues, and on this subject, ANHA agency met administrator at Kongra Star and gynecologist.

Effects of early marriage on women

Dr. Piman Idel explained that early marriage greatly affects the personality of a woman because she cannot raise children at that age and has a significant impact on her in terms of health as well.

She spoke of the psychological state of the woman and said that when the family in which a girl grows up sees her as weak, unable to take responsibility, manage her affairs thus instilling these ideas in the girl's mind, then she would accept to marry at an early age, the family marries the girl to the authority of the man who in turn exercises injustice and domination against her. "

We are trying to build a moral society

The administrator at Kongra Star of Kobanî canton Sarah Khalil said that after the enactment of laws governing marriage matters and through training and awareness courses, they were able to reduce the phenomenon of early marriage and polygamy. Sara also called on men and society to give up the idea of ​​polygamy and to contribute to building a moral society.
