At Plan International Canada, our mission is to strive 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 inequality.

Sudan Emergency Appeal

The violence in Sudan has reached new and horrifying extremes. Armed groups are mass executing families, targeting and sexually assaulting girls, and attacking community centers, including maternity hospitals.

More than 250,000 people – more than half of them children – are trapped inside the conflict zone, while tens of thousands flee on foot to escape the violence. Children need us to act right now.
