Plan Egypt
Plan has been working in Egypt for more than 30 years, serving more than 1,500,000 children and their families in 6 governorates.
We focus on child rights, implementing programmes designed to enable communities to improve the lives of the most marginalised children by working with women, youth and civil society organisations.
