The Organization

Plan International is an independent humanitarian and development organization that advances children's rights and gender equality, or the further equality of rights for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child, but we know that this is often undermined by poverty, violence, exclusion, social norms, and discrimination. And it is girls who are most affected.

Working together with children, young people, supporters, and partners, we seek a fairer and more sustainable world that addresses the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children face.

We support girls, and more broadly all children, from birth to adulthood to develop their autonomy and empower them to decide their lives in development and/or emergency situations. We drive change in practices and policies at the local, national, and global levels through our reach, experience, and insight into needs, realities, and inequalities.

For over 85 years, we've mobilized other determined optimists to transform the lives of all children in over 80 countries. Together, we won't stop.

Until equality!
