Recruitment information:

1. Introduction

Founded in 1937, Plan International (PI) is a development and humanitarian organization that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We strive for a just world, working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners. PI is currently working across 19 fundraising countries and supports millions of children, their families and their communities in 50 Plan’s programme countries. Child sponsorship connects people and cultures, helps us to generate long-term and reliable support for our child-centered community programs and guarantees our independence. Sponsors and children opportunities to share their common interests and exchange cultures through lasting and sustainable commitment of sponsors to child development and better relationships building among different sides. Reestablished in 1993 in Vietnam Plan International Vietnam provides support to more than 32 thousands children living in 855 communities of the 5 provinces of Ha Giang and Lai Chau in the north, Quang Binh and Quang Tri in the central and Kon Tum in the central highland. In September 2019 Plan International Vietnam formally started transformation with a strategic choices workshop attended by the extended CMT for Vietnam, and the APH region representatives. In October 2019 a second extended CMT workshop was held – the design workshop – where a design plan was developed for translating these strategic choices into action. We agree that Plan needs to decentralize and partner to manage our sponsorships. However, it is still unclear who the most appropriate partners are and how to manage it, therefore, we commit to conducting further analysis to inform decision-making.
