After losing his job as a labourer, and no longer being able to provide for his family, he decided to marry off his daughters out of economic desperation. They rely on neighbours for food assistance.

She does not have decision-making power and does not see other alternatives to keep her daughter safe.

Married off at 14 to a 25-year-old and now has two children.

Has mental health issues.

Does not attend school.

When he tried to convince his brother not to marry off Iman, Ismael replied, “I can’t afford her, do you want her for your son?” He also asked a tribe elder for help, but child marriage in Yemen is not technically illegal.

Lives in two small rooms with five children.
