Haiti Earthquake one month on: responding to the needs of girls
We must ensure earthquake recovery efforts respond to the needs of girls and young women.
Plan International Haiti
Plan International began operating in Haiti in 1973 to address the biggest inequalities and violations of children’s rights.
In Haiti there are high rates of child marriage, teenage pregnancy, violence and child labour in addition to a lack of education. We are working in collaboration with the Haitian government to support children to realise their full potential and prevent the risks they are exposed to.
By focusing on the key issues faced by the most vulnerable children, especially girls in remote communities, we are working where we are needed most and can have the biggest impact.
Our current priorities include:
- Ensuring the most vulnerable children have access to a quality education
- Preventing violence and exploitation, and supporting survivors of abuse
- Preventing teenage pregnancy.
