#InOurHands

A better world is within our reach. A world where no one suffers from hunger, poverty, violence or lacks basic healthcare, power and other essential services. As global citizens, the responsibility for creating a better world lies in our hands.

The Millennium Development Goals will expire in 2015, and a new global agenda will be implemented. It’s critical that this new, post-2015 agenda include concrete steps to eradicate extreme poverty from the face of the earth by 2030, and deliver on the promise of sustainable development.

Some of the steps we need to take are outlined in this video. But there are others. It’s up to each of us to get involved and ask our governments to take actions that will help shape the post-2015 agenda so that we can turn the idea of a better world into a reality for everyone.

Tell us what you want your governments to do. Tell us what YOU will do. #inourhands
