Ibu Rayhan was married off at the age of eleven and became pregnant soon afterwards. Today she is fighting to stop child marriages in Indonesia.
On the Indonesian island of Lombok, men traditionally have the say. Women and girls are expected to obey their wishes. In Indonesia, around one in every seven girls is married before the age of 18. Instead of attending school or getting an education, many child brides are subjected to beatings and abuse. Ibu Rayhan knows this only too well; she was married off at the age of 11. Now, together with Ulla, a fellow activist, she visits villages on Lombok and tries to change attitudes -- especially among the boys.
