Plan International works in places where the violations of children’s rights are the greatest and where we can create lasting, positive change.
As part of a passionate global community, we partner with children, families, communities and governments to help all children reach their full potential.

Stories from Around the World
Boys and men can play a role in breaking down menstruation taboos. See how we’re working with them to keep more girls in school and end period shaming.
Why our work focuses on girls
Millions of children are barred from accessing their rights, but girls are the most likely to suffer from these injustice. Investing in girls is one of the most effective ways to fight global poverty and create more resilient communities.
