摘要：

Early marriage, also defined as marriage below the age of 18, mainly affects girls. It is common in many West African countries, including The Gambia. This study sought to document the findings and lessons learned from developing a five-year community-based intervention for addressing early marriage among girls aged 10–19 in 53 rural communities in The Gambia.
