role PURPOSE

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child. But this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And its girls who are most affected.

Working in over 70 developing countries globally, Plan International strives for a just world that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We engage people and partners to:

  • Empower children, young people and communities to make vital changes that tackle the root causes of discrimination against girls, exclusion and vulnerability.

  • Support the safe and successful progression of children into adulthood

Our values were developed in close collaboration with staff across the organization, and were approved by the Members’ Assembly in June 2016, meaning they apply across the whole of Plan International.  A set of values defines what is important to us. Our values outline how we should work to secure the change we want to see in the world and to achieve our purpose (in italics above). They support the ambitious long-term goals set by our purpose statement, and guide how we can contribute to achieving the ambitious goals in our current Global Strategy, 100 Million Reasons.
