Investing in equal rights for girls
Plan International does everything in its power to create an equal future for children everywhere, with a particular focus on girls. Globally, girls are still at a disadvantage, simply because they are girls. Together with our business partners we strive for a future in which every child can thrive and all girls can make their dreams come through.
Why girls?
When girls get equal opportunities, everyone wins. With their power and talents they strengthen communities, stimulate sustainable economies and create a just world. By collaborating with Plan International, you invest in gender equality.
Plan International is active in more than 80 countries worldwide and works in close collaboration with communities. Our core themes are:
- Protection against child marriage, female genital mutilation (FGM), sexual violence and teen pregnancy
- Education and employment
- Water, sanitation and hygiene
- Humanitarian aid in conflicts and emergencies
