Plan International: promoting child rights to end child poverty
Our next step in Shaanxi after Xian was the county of Pucheng, where the NGO Plan International has been working since 2000 to sponsor 5572 children.
Founded over 75 years ago, Plan International is one of the oldest and largest children’s development organizations in the world. They work in 50 developing countries across Africa, Asia and the Americas to promote child rights and lift millions of children out of poverty.
Plan has been working in China since 1995 helping poor children to access their rights to health, education, livelihoods and protection. Plan China strives to work with children, especially the most marginalized children, their families and their communities, to improve living standards and promote children’s development.
Plan China’s major program areas are located in Shaanxi Province, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region and Yunnan Province, where 168,000 children have directly benefited from their programs. Programs address children’s rights, early childhood care and development, child protection, community-based child education, child nutrition, child-friendly schools, and child-centered disaster preparedness. Within the process of implementing these programs, they will build the capacity of children and their families; strengthen cooperation with civil society and government departments at all levels; provide capacity building for relevant partners; and promote advocacy so as to contribute to the efforts of promoting child rights to end child poverty.
