Plan International Ghana
Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls and has been working in Ghana to support children, particularly the most marginalised, to exercise their rights for 30 years.
In implementing our new country strategy, we will now be implementing programmes and influencing in the north and south of the country. Our main office provides administrative support from Accra.
We are improving the effectiveness of child sponsorship in the most disadvantaged communities and mobilising resources through grant funding to reach other marginalised communities. We drive changes in practice and policy using our reach, experience and knowledge to influence national policymakers and traditional influencers.
Working together with children, young people, supporters, and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children face.
We won’t stop until we are all equal.
Our current priorities are:
- Creating safe communities for children that are free from all forms of violence.
- Ensuring children have the opportunity to learn through our quality, basic, inclusive education programme and youth skills training.
- Supporting families to earn more money and manage it better so their children can thrive.
