Plan International Laos

Plan International began operating in Laos in 2007 to advance children’s rights and equality for girls.

We work together with children, young people, supporters and partners to strive for a just world where we are all equal.

We support vulnerable children and adolescents, especially girls and young women, to ensure they are equally valued by society, healthy, knowledgeable and decide on matters that affect them.

We work in Bokeo, Luang Prabang, Oudomxay, Saravan, Vientiane Provinces, and Vientiane Capital.

We won’t stop until we are all equal.

To accomplish this we work in the following key areas:

Increased access to sanitation and health services to improve nutrition for women and children in marginalised communities.
Sustained access to quality education for disadvantaged children, particularly girls and ethnic non-Lao speakers, with the support of parents and communities.
Supporting adolescents, particularly girls, to lead and make informed decisions about their bodies and lives.
Improved economic skills, entrepreneurial spirit, opportunities and employment conditions for young people, especially young women.
