Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian non-profit organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood, and enable children to prepare for – and respond to – crises and adversity. We have been building powerful partnerships for children for over 80 years and are now active in more than 70 countries, driving changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge. Plan International is registered in Nigeria with the Corporate Affairs Commission. Our Work in Nigeria We officially started operations in Nigeria in 2014 after acquiring ‘Centre for Development and Population Activities’ (CEDPA), a USA-based International Non-Governmental Organisation (INGO) that began working in the country in 1985. Our Ambition It is our ambition to address the root cause of the issues that girls face in Nigeria and we will be bold and courageous in doing it. Over the next 5 years, we will work to Transform Power Relations in Favour of Girls. We will not stop until 10 million girls can learn, lead, decide and thrive.
