About Plan International Zambia

Plan International is an international Developmental and Humanitarian Non-governmental Organization that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. Our main strategic goal in Zambia is to make significant contribution to ensure vulnerable and excluded adolescent girls reach their full potential.

Early childhood is a crucial stage of life in terms of a child’s physical, intellectual, emotional and social development. At the age of 0 to 3 years, children need high quality personal care and psycho-social stimulation. There was strong and growing evidence that high quality care in the early years (0-6) years can act as a springboard for success in school. In turn, education provides vulnerable children with a chance to escape poverty, build a more secure future and realize their full potential.
