Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organization that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We envision a world where all children and young people realize their full potential, a vision shared by the 193 Heads of State and Government who adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in September 2015.

We believe in the power and potential of every child, often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion, and discrimination, especially affecting girls. Our new Global Strategy aims to transform the lives of 100 million girls through an integrated program and influence approach.
