Plan International is an independent organisation for development cooperation and humanitarian aid. Girls and boys should have the same rights and opportunities worldwide and actively shape their future. To achieve this, Plan implements projects for sustainable community development in its partner countries in an efficient and transparent manner and reacts quickly to emergencies and disasters that threaten the lives of children. In more than 75 countries, Plan works hand in hand with children, young people, supporters and partners of each gender to achieve the global goal: 100 million girls should learn, lead, decide and develop their full potential. The sustainable development goals of the United Nations reinforce Plan’s commitment.
