As an international child centred community
development organisation, Plan International is fully committed to promoting
the realisation of children’s rights including their right to protection from
violence and abuse. That means we have particular responsibilities to children
that we come into contact with.
Plan International believes that in a world
where children face so many threats of harm, it is our duty to ensure that we,
as an organisation, do everything we can to keep children safe. We must not
contribute in any way to harming or placing children at risk.
Plan International operates an equal
opportunities policy and actively encourages diversity, welcoming applications
from all areas of the international community.
