Abstract: Richmond Tiemoko focuses on the problem of gender age gap in marriage for children's rights and women's rights in the Côte d'Ivoire. He shows how both women and children suffer from the practice of older men marrying younger women and suggests that unless that practice changes the rights of women and children cannot be fulfilled.
