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.

The youth accelerator for change project is building on the work done by She Leads which is guided by the Global Strategy (All Girls Standing Strong), Global Advocacy Strategy (GLAS), the Pan African Advocacy Strategy (PAAS), and PIU Country Strategy. The strategy employs several integrated influencing approaches including targeted policy advocacy, strategic communications and campaigns, and empowerment.

The project is seeking for a Graduate intern who is responsible for ensuring that PIU's Youth accelerator for change project is implemented in East central region (Kamuli and Buyende) districts with the highest standards and quality for impact on the lives of children and young women as defined in the project documents. The incumbent will be accountable for delivery of the project on time, scope and budget as per project management standards with the support and Guidance of the Project Coordinator.

Location: Kamuli.

Type of Role: Graduate Internship.

Reports to: Project Coordinator- Youth Accelerator for Change.

Grade: N/A.

Closing Date: 11 March 2026.

Equality, diversity and inclusion is at the very heart of everything that Plan International stands for.

Plan International is based on a culture of inclusivity and we strive to create a workplace environment that ensures every team, in every office, in every country, is rich in diverse people, thoughts, and ideas. We foster an organisational culture that embraces our commitment to racial justice, gender equality, girls’ rights and inclusion.

Plan International believes that in a world where children face so many threats of harm, it is our duty to ensure that we, as an organisation, do everything we can to keep children safe. This means that we have particular responsibilities to children that we come into contact with and we must not contribute in any way to harming or placing children at risk.
