Equal opportunities and rights for girls and boys
No more child marriages, teenage pregnancies, female genital mutilation or sexual exploitation. Equal opportunities and rights for girls and boys. That is what Plan International is committed to. In more than 80 countries we have projects on protection, youth and employment (including education), WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) and emergency aid. We pay special attention to girls. Every day, around the world, girls are still disadvantaged and get fewer opportunities.
Plan International makes extra efforts to improve the position of girls so they can grow into strong, independent women who make decisions about their own lives. Investing in girls is investing in a better future for everyone.
We can’t do that alone. Become a Plan International Business Supporter and invest in a sustainable future for these girls – from 200,- per month.

Investing in girls is investing in a better future for everyone!
With each extra year of education, women earn 10-20% more – and they spend 90% of their income on their families. That means they can provide better care for their children, who in turn can also go to school for longer.
"Because I am a girl ...
... I have dreams. When I grow up I want to become a doctor, or a judge, or perhaps a physicist!” But many girls cannot make their dreams come true. That must change! Girls must be able to get ahead. Plan International ensures that girls are educated and protected from violence, and that they dare to stand up for themselves. In this way they grow into powerful women who can make a difference.
