Child marriage poses a serious problem in many countries, including Indonesia, with millions of girls under the age of 18 getting married every year. This research aims to explore the factors related to child marriage in Indonesia and analyze the prevention efforts undertaken by the government. The research method used is normative legal research with a normative juridical approach, referring to the analysis of legislation and relevant documents. Data were collected from secondary sources and analyzed qualitatively using the IRAC method (Issue, Rule, Analysis/Application, Conclusion). The results show that child marriage is influenced by complex factors such as economics, education, culture, religion, and law. Although there has been a decrease in the number of child marriages in Indonesia, challenges in prevention still exist, especially regarding marriage dispensations that the court can grant. Preventing child marriage requires a comprehensive approach through increasing awareness, education, cultural change, and strengthening consistent legal regulations.
