OurApproach

Plan International is committed to making a lasting impact on the lives of the most vulnerable children while promoting greater equality for girls.

We work not only to improve the daily lives of girls but also to advance their position and value in society, while actively working with boys and young men to champion gender equality. We believe in advancing children’s rights in all contexts, including during conflict and emergencies, where girls in particular are faced with additional dangers.

Our programs deliver lasting change. We listen to the voices of children in the community, especially girls, whose views and needs are frequently overlooked, to ensure that our work is relevant and effective.

We work with governments and encourage them to meet their obligations towards child protection and children’s rights. We work with children, their families, communities and governments to address the root causes of child rights violations and inequality.

We encourage young people to become part of the change by educating them on their rights and supporting their activism.
