Campaigning for the MDGs
Bond and its members are working in the UK and internationally with partners and allies including NGO national platforms in Europe and across the world and as part of CONCORD and the Global Call to Action Against Poverty (GCAP), to significantly increase the pressure on governments and elicit concrete actions to reach the MDGs by 2015.
Civil society demands around the MDG summit included specific, time-bound actions for the five year period between 2010 and 2015, and a focus on expanding the MDG framework to look at the institutions and processes that need to be changed in order to respond to the challenge of ending poverty and inequality.
From 17 - 19 September 2010, UK citizens joined millions of people around the world to participate in Stand Up and Take Action against Poverty - in order to shine a spotlight on the MDGs summit, and show support for a positive outcome.
Bond is also a member of the Beyond 2015 campaign,which unites global civil society's efforts towards a strong and legitimate successor framework to the MDGs after the 2015 deadline.
