Plan International is a global organization that is active in over 70 countries to advance children's rights and equality for girls and has reaches sponsored children, their families and their communities in more than 50 countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America. In 2017, our work has reached 17.1 million girls and 15.5 million. Plan International strategic objective is to work with vulnerable children and especially girls so that they can learn, lead, decide and thrive. We want to fulfil the promise of the 2030 Global Goals and strive for a just world that advances children's rights and equality for girls. Within the strategy we have an ambition to transform the lives of 100 million girls. Child sponsorship and grassroots community work are central to our strategy and achieving this ambition. Plan International is committed to making a lasting impact on the lives of the most vulnerable and excluded children while promoting greater equality for girls. We aim not only to improve the daily lives of girls but also to advance their position and value in society, whilst actively working with boys and young men to champion gender equality. We believe in advancing children’s rights in
all contexts, including during conflict and emergencies, where girls are faced with additional dangers.
Our programs deliver lasting change against discriminatory norms, policies
and laws. We listen to the voices of children in the community, especially girls whose views and needs are frequently overlooked, to ensure that our work is relevant and effective.
We work to strengthen the capacities of governments and encourage them to meet their obligations towards child protection and fulfilling children’s rights.
We form effective partnerships to address the systemic and structural causes of child rights violations and inequality, and support other humanitarian groups to extend our reach beyond the communities we work in.
We embolden young people to become active drivers of change by educating them on their rights and supporting their activism.
