Millions of young people are denied the right to information and advice on sexual health and HIV and this can have long-term and devastating effects on their lives.
Plan works with partners and communities to:
- support quality reproductive and sexual health education and services
- advocate for the rights of children and youths living in a world with HIV
- provide prevention, care and support services to those living with HIV and AIDS
- challenge beliefs and attitudes that maintain unequal power relations between the sexes.
We directly involve children and young people in all of our work, helping them to identify problems and find solutions.
In 2012, Plan trained 86,809 community health workers and traditional birth attendants, benefiting 9,433 communities.
Plan advocates for more effective policies and actions that protect the rights of children. We work with communities and families to make sure those affected by HIV receive the care and support they need. We also advocate for children orphaned by AIDS to live with family members.
Our direct response programmes help communities in a variety of ways - from medical support to helping improve the livelihoods of families living with HIV.
