Save the Children's Spotlight series is a collection of country briefings to support national-level advocacy through the latest data and analysis of progress and ongoing barriers. The spotlights seek to include data on drivers, risk factors and consequences of child marriage and other forms of gender-based violence, including data on rates of child marriage, adolescent pregnancy, skilled birth attendance, intimate partner violence, violent discipline and female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) as well as gender inequality index rankings and the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis to-date. Each makes recommendations to governments based on Save the Children's national priorities.
