Our Values
We believe all children have the right to food, clean water, health, education and respect. Plan International works to meet these basic needs of children as well as addressing the causes and consequences of poverty at all levels. We know that it is impossible for a child to reach their potential unless their community is developing alongside them. So Plan International's commitment to each community means that the health, sanitation and education programmes we establish are long-term and sustainable.
