A girl performing domestic work outside her home in Ha Giang Province, Viet Nam

Poverty and discrimination are often compounded by a lack of alternatives, the lack of availability or cost of education, and – in rural areas – few opportunities for girls outside of farm work, marriage and motherhood.
