Plan International is a multi-sectoral organisation with a global priority in addressing unintended adolescent pregnancy, especially given the close association with high rates of child, early, and forced marriages and unions.
In 2020, Plan International undertook an internal consultation on adolescent pregnancy and young parenthood to deepen our understanding and gather the different perspectives and experiences of Plan International staff, looking across the different priority thematic areas2 of Plan International. This internal consultation resulted in a road map for action, identifying clear gaps and future deliverables to support Plan International´s ambition to be a gender-transformative organisation, which includes developing approaches that also consider the needs and support for pregnant adolescents and young parents.
1. Background
Save the Children Canada (SC Canada) is working to increase its capacity to support Indigenous partners in preparing for, responding to and recovering from emergencies. SC Canada’s domestic program (National Reconciliation Program) works with First Nations, Inuit and Metis communities across the country to support locally led, rights-based, culturally relevant and safe interventions during times of crisis.
As SC Canada’s work in the area has grown so has the need to develop appropriate systems and processes to better respond to the challenges faced by a diverse range of Indigenous organizations that serve Indigenous communities. These organizations may include tribal councils, regional health authorities, band councils, informal networks and schools.
