Plan International Canada strives for a just world that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We stand with children, especially girls, wherever they are oppressed, exploited, left behind or not equally valued. We strive to create a world where children, especially girls, learn, lead, decide and thrive. We tackle the root causes of gender inequality.
