The Organisation
Plan
International is an independent development and humanitarian
organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We
believe in the power and potential of every child but know this is often
suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it
is girls who are most affected.
Working together with children,
young people, supporters and partners, we strive for a just world,
tackling the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children
face. We support children’s rights from birth until they reach
adulthood and we enable children to prepare for and respond to crises
and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local,
national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.
For over 85 years, we have rallied other determined optimists to transform the lives of all children in more than 80 countries.
We won’t stop until we are all equal.
