On Valentine’s Day, the United Nations shared a social media post decrying child marriage.
While the sentiment is important and valid, the organization received an embarrassing community note for the image they used.
They wrote on X, “Every 3 seconds, a girl is married somewhere in the world.”
“Child marriage is a human rights violation that denies girls the chance to reach their full potential.”
“This#ValentinesDay, join@UNFPAin speaking out against this form of gender-based violence.”
