Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that stands with girls to tear down barriers, save lives
and build a world where equality for girls leads to progress for all.
Across the globe, girls face more risks and fewer choices.
Gains that took decades to secure — like staying in school,
choosing if or when to marry or have children, and shaping
their own futures — are under threat.
And in conflict zones, girls are being deliberately attacked —
killed in schools and homes, abducted, starved or recruited
by armed groups — simply because they are girls.
But girls aren’t backing down. They’re raising their voices
and leading the fight for change.
Plan backs girls to lead on what matters most: a
quality education, access to clean water and enough
to eat, safety from violence and the freedom to live
out their childhood without being forced into marriage
or motherhood.
For over 85 years and with deep community roots, strong partnerships
and decades of trust, Plan’s work saves lives in the
moment and evolves with girls through every stage
of life.
