Watch the video version of this podcast: https://youtu.be/5NSALKYBjz0 21 year old Noor-ul-Ain from Dubai went viral on TikTok after sharing her personal traumatic story of an ordinary wedding / shaadi visit to Pakistan gone wrong. Essentially , Noor and her family flew to Pakistan from dubai to attend her cousin's wedding, and unexpectedly, she found that she was getting engaged against her consent, at the age of 12, by her parents. Her TikTok video has over 1.5 million views as of this recording, and now, Noor is here to share her full story in detail with us, as well as her thoughts and learnings from this story of her life. Forced marriage of children (particularly girls) under the age of 18 is still a major issue in many countries, including Pakistan. Lawmakers and activists have made efforts over the last several years to alleviate this issue, with some (but not nearly complete) success. Noor's TikTok Username : @noor.ul.aiinNoor's Instagram: @noor.ul.aiinNoor's TikTok Part 1 : https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMJAx7SuR/Part 2: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMJAxxTSA/ Questions?
