About This Cause

Our Vision: Plan’s vision is of a world in which all children realize their full potential in societies which respect people’s rights and dignity. It is an independent organisation, with no religious, political or governmental affiliations. Our Mission: Plan aims to achieve lasting improvements in the quality of life of deprived children in developing countries through a process that unites people across cultures and adds meaning and value to their lives by: Enabling deprived children, their families and their communities to meet their basic needs and to increase their ability to participate in and benefit from their societies. Building relationships to increase understanding and unity among peoples of different cultures and countries. Promoting the rights and interests of the world's children. Our goal is to be the leading child development organisation in India, known for its credibility and the lasting impact it creates in the lives of vulnerable and excluded children and their communities. Plan India's programmes looks to reach out to two million children directly and five million children indirectly through advocacy and policy influence. On 20th November 1989, the United Nations adopted the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), a landmark for human rights. For the first time, the world witnessed a treaty that sought to address the human rights of children and set a minimum standard for the protection of these rights. The Government of India ratified the conversion on the Rights of the Child, on 12th November 1992, expressing its commitment to the children of India. The convention provides a framework for Plan's work around the world. In India, this can be seen in our six goals. 1. Child Survival, Growth and Optimal Development 2. Water, Sanitation and Hygiene 3. Quality and Holistic Education 4. Employability and Economic Empowerment 5. Disaster Risk Reduction 6. Protection from abuse, neglect and exploitation
