Plan has been working in South Sudan, including before its independence, since 2006 - helping poor children to access their rights to education, health, protection and economic security.
We work with more than 20,000 children - mainly in Juba, Lainya and Yei counties in Central Equatoria - to bring lasting improvements in a country that has emerged from decades of civil war.
Plan South Sudan promotes child rights to ensure that children, families and communities actively participate in their own development - from identifying problems to implementing solutions.
Plan South Sudan’s areas of activity include:
- improving access to basic education
- sustainable livelihoods
- good governance for peace building and child protection
- disaster risk reduction, preparedness and humanitarian response.
