Abstract
Overlapping crises such as climate change, the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, regional conflicts and rising global food insecurity exacerbate the inequalities faced by adolescent girls, making them particularly vulnerable in these critical times. For many girls, these circumstances force them to make decisions
about employment and their fertility at an early age, limits their access to formal education, and further exposes them to restrictive social norms.
