Cohabitation before the age of 18 and during the first years of transition to adulthood in Peru is a reality that mainly affects women. Data from Young Lives indicate that, by the age of 19, 30 % of women were already cohabiting, while only 7 % of men were. The sub-study on which this policy paper is based explores the motivations behind the figures, as well as the implications for their life trajectories.
