There is much discussion about forced marriages, without there being a clear method to determine a forced marriage. This chart intends to cover this gap. By means of the chart you first establish whether there is actually a marriage, or plans for a marriage (for without a marriage or plans, there cannot be a forced marriage). Then, secondly, you determine whether, in a given case, there are forms of coercion. For coercion in a general sense there exist objective criteria that, e.g., also apply to abduction, rape and forced labor.
