Every day we make choices about what we buy – including the clothes we wear and the food we eat – that affect people in poorer countries.
Everyone can work for a better world by engaging with the political process. The more elected representatives know that people care about developing countries, the more they will do to fight poverty. The international community has pledged to halve world poverty by 2015. Everyone has a role to play in generating the political momentum to meet the target. Whoever we are, our everyday decisions about our time and money can shape the kind of world we want to live in.

There are lots of great ways to make a sustained contribution to global development by lending a hand to one of the many agencies and programmes that work in the international arena.

All ages and kinds of people get involved. And whether you are a highly experienced professional who can offer specialized skills, just beginning to think about what to do when you leave school, or somewhere in between, there is an organization out there waiting to make use of your talents and time

True this. I would love to help people like this when i start making my money.

For some reason tho, i don't like how peopel advertise things like this, even when i see it on Tv, im always mad. Cos it's like, "africa this, africa that". I know there r people there suffering b ut i just somehow when i see it. I guess i understand me better.

Hot-angel , IT's called the truth period, there is no way of window dressing it



Uche thanks, its always good to find time to reflect on some of these issues, and i pray we all begin to make changes starting with the man in the mirror. haaaaaaaaaaa!

eople this is deep! i can't believe! well i can believe but it makes me really sad! i would like to help someday but most of these organizations in Africa do not give the money to these people their corruption discourages me.

If I had my way, i would ban CNN from Africa. Their cameras only capture poverty, hunger and hard lives.

They gave us AIDS, then later they'll give us financial AID

Bann Cnn from africa? and do you have an african network that will report the truth? cause i know the govts would rather tell of one programme or the other which hardly reaches a fraction of needy people and hide the suffering.

Who gave african's aids? Cnn? or the west? this is kinda dumb , i dont even want to get into it and take this thread a diff direction. Have a word People need to take responsibility and not blame the west for everything
