Plan Liberia: what we do

Plan’s work in Liberia covers 5 core areas, all of which are rooted in the rights of the child:

• increasing access to birth registration services
• supporting the capacity of caregivers
• improving children’s access to basic education
• promoting gender equality
• increasing the capacity of Plan’s partners

A birth certificate gives children easier access to social services, such as health care and education, and helps to protect them from child marriage, child labour and trafficking.

We train health workers in recording and registering births and promote the importance of birth registration throughout Communities.
