For the past 10 years, Global Citizen has called for action to end extreme poverty. But the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with decades of neglect from our leaders, has wiped out years of progress. Nearly 100 million more people live in poverty today than before the pandemic. The war in Ukraine will only aggravate the situation further, with as many as 500 million people facing acute hunger as a result.
End Extreme Poverty NOW. Our Future Can't Wait.
This new, year-long campaign will call on world leaders to make the urgently needed commitments to End Extreme Poverty NOW. With major global events and urgent actions to rally millions of citizens, we will demand that leaders stop delaying action and focus on what we need to do here and now.
