Plan International Australia
Plan International Australia strives for a just world that advances children's rights and equality for girls.
In the Australian Humanitarian Partnership (AHP), Plan International Australia is partnering with ActionAid Australia, ChildFund Australia, International Medical Corps UK, CBM Australia and Australian Volunteers International. Through the AHP, Plan has received funds for humanitarian activities in Lebanon (protection activities) responding to the Syria crisis and in Nepal (protection and education activities) following the 2017 floods. Within the AHP Disaster READY program, Plan International is implementing preparedness activities regionally, in Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, Timor-Leste, Fiji and PNG.
Increasing the number of girls and women in the classroom, both among students and as teachers, has been one of the aims of the AHP Education in Emergencies response in Myanmar. 19-year-old Yamin Khin now has the opportunity to work as an Assistant Volunteer Teacher at the same learning centre where she studied.
