Be the generation to end poverty

In countries where the eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are on track, people are living with new hope to escape poverty. But while some progress has been made, many governments have fallen disgracefully behind schedule. Rich countries are back-tracking on their aid promises and poor countries are not investing enough in education and health care which is undermining people’s fundamental rights.

If things continue as they are, none of the MDGs will be fully met by the 2015. What we need is immediate and sustained action by nations, both rich and poor together. In My Name is a global call to action against poverty and demand world leaders keep their promises on millennium development goals.
