We need changes both at a global and local level if children's lives are to be improved.
Campaigning at Plan is about collective action to improve the lives of children. It's about raising understanding and support for people who are often disregarded, and have difficulty having their opinion listened to.
Currently Plan is campaigning and/or advocating on the following issues:
Learn Without Fear » Learn Without Fear is Plan's global campaign to end violence against children in school - focusing on corporal punishment, sexual violence and bullying.
Universal Birth Registration » Plan is campaigning at the local and national level to give children the fundamental right to an identity.
Because I am a Girl: The State of the World's Girls » Plan is publishing the State of the World's Girls report series to bring global attention to the fact that progress towards meeting the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) - the goals set by the world's governments in 2000 to halve world poverty by 2015 - is being hampered by a continued lack of investment in girls and young women.
