Call for Proposals - PAO Advocacy Strategic Review

Plan International positions itself as a strong global civil society actor that resonates with all those who want to advance children’s rights and equality for girls. We have a bold statement that strives for “a just world that advances children’s rights and equality for girls”

Plan engages globally and takes action where children are not enjoying the rights they deserve and where we can add value. We empower children, young people and communities to make vital changes that tackle the root causes of discrimination against girls, exclusion and vulnerability. To realise this change, we drive change in practice and policy at local, national and global levels through our reach, experience and knowledge of the realities children face.

In 2013, the Plan AU Liaison Office, developed a 5 year (2013-2017) advocacy strategy focused on addressing the challenges facing children and especially girls, and to the address seemingly gap between policy making and policy implementation at all levels

The Task - Strategy Review
