Founded in 1937, Plan International is a development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We strive for a just world, working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners.
Plan International has been working in Brazil since 1997 and operate in the states of Maranhão, Piauí, Bahia and São Paulo to create communities that are free from violence where girls and boys have equal opportunities.
Vision, Mission
Our work is focused on ensuring girls are able to lead, decide and thrive:
Lead: Girls have a strong voice and act as agents of change in the promotion of their rights.
Decide: Girls have control over their lives and bodies, taking informed decisions about their identities, relationships and when to have children.
Thrive: Children and their communities prevent violence against girls so they are able to follow their ambitions.
