Together, we can help make sure no girl is left behind.
Why Girls?
Girls and women around the world are facing unique challenges and inequalities.
We know from our experience responding the Ebola outbreak in Western Africa, that in times of crises, girls face a much higher risk of being pulled from school permanently. And when girls were isolated at home, rates of sexual violence, teenage pregnancy, trafficking, child labour and child marriage increase dramatically.
But girls hold immense power and potential to create very real change.
When girls are educated and supported – their entire family and community benefits, including boys and men. By making sure girls aren’t left behind in a crisis like COVID-19, we’re helping to create an equal world – a world where girls can take their rightful place as equals
About Plan International Australia
Put simply, we’re the charity for girls’ equality.
We tackle the root causes of poverty, support communities through crisis, campaign for gender equality, and help governments do what’s right for children and particularly for girls.
We are here to ignite the creativity, talent and ideas of girls in all their diversities. We are informed by evidence, and always learning.
A better now for her. A better future for everyone.
This is what we stand for. Will you join us?
