The Organisation

Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We believe in the power and potential of every child but know this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it is girls who are most affected. Working together with children, young people, supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges girls and vulnerable children face. We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood and we enable children to prepare for and respond to crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge. For over 85 years, we have rallied other determined optimists to transform the lives of all children in more than 80 countries. We won’t stop until we are all equal.

Plan International Uganda (PIU's) over-arching goal is for children and adolescent, especially girls, to develop their full potential in communities that promote their rights and gender equality. The Case Management Worker is at the forefront of the practical implementation of our child protection projects, identifying, assessing, supporting and empowering vulnerable children and youth especially those who have been harmed, or who are at risk of harm.

The Child Protection (CP) Case Management Worker provides high level technical expertise in the provision of timely and quality child protection case management, psychological First Aid / psychosocial support, ensuring a beneficial impact in the lives of at-risk children and youth as a result of PIU's project.
