Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children\u2019s rights and equality for girls.<\/p>\n
We believe in the power and potential of every child. But this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it\u2019s girls who are most affected.<\/p>\n
Working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all vulnerable children.<\/p>\n
We support children\u2019s rights from birth until they reach adulthood. And we enable children to prepare for \u2013 and respond to \u2013 crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.<\/p>\n
We have been building powerful partnerships for children for over\u00a080 years, and are now active in more than 70 countries.<\/p>\n
