Company:\u00a0Plan International<\/p>\n
The Organisation
\nPlan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children\u2019s rights and equality for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child but know this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it is girls who are most affected.
\n\u00a0
\nWorking together with children, young people, supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children face. We support children\u2019s rights from birth until they reach adulthood and we enable children to prepare for and respond to crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.
\nFor over 85 years, we have rallied other determined optimists to transform the lives of all children in more than 80 countries.
\nWe won\u2019t stop until we are all equal.
