Plan Benin: what we do

Plan’s work in Benin covers 3 programmes, all of which are rooted in the rights of the child:

• Governance and child rights
• Youth leadership
• Empowered women for child rights

Plan works to ensure that councils (newly decentralised communes) have signed up to child protection code and increased their investment in the areas of water and sanitation, basic education, and maternal and infant health- including the reduction of mother-to-child transmission of HIV.
Also, Plan thrives to make sure that women’s organisations and their federations have access to relevant information about the functioning of their councils and effectively participate in the council’s public deliberations, putting the interest of girls’ and women on the political agenda of their communes.
