Supporting girls to campaign for equality in education
The Impact-Elle project supports girls to take control of their futures through education and knowledge on pregnancy and early marriage.
Plan International began operating in Benin in 1994 to support children to exercise their rights.
In Benin, there is a high mortality rate for children under 5 due to preventable diseases. In addition, adolescents and young people are at risk of sexual and reproductive health problems due to a lack of education. As a result, there are high rates of teenage pregnancy, girls dropping out of school and maternal death.
Plan International Benin works alongside youth-led organisations, partners and communities to ensure vulnerable children, especially girls and young women, are informed, confident and able to make key decisions about their lives and bodies without fear of violence.
Our priorities include:
