(BBC) A comic book about forced marriages has been created for pupils as young as 13 to help prevent them from happening.
The “I Choose” comic, based on research by the University of Nottingham, shares stories of real experiences.
Prof Dr Helen McCabe said the comic was aimed at helping students “navigate” conversations around relationships and control.
The comic has been made free for teachers to download and use in schools.
It addresses relationships, choice, marriage, coercive control, family influence, and explains how people from all backgrounds — including different ethnicities and sexual orientations — can be affected.
