Children are often the first to feel the effects of poverty, being forced to go hungry or leave school to earn an income for the family.
Plan works with community partners to ensure that families in extreme poverty have the skills they need to increase their income and can access financial services.
In 2012, Plan trained 72,075 agricultural workers and provided vocational and business training to 72,788 people. We also supported 5,366 microfinance organisations and 34,100 local savings and loans groups, benefiting 15,468 communities.
Over the next decade, 1.3 billion young people will be entering the workforce, but only 300,000,000 new jobs are expected to be created. To reduce poverty, one of our key priorities is to make sure that young people have opportunities for decent employment.
