Poverty

I want change

"I suspect we all know that the standard of living we enjoy in britain, particularly amongst the majority wealthy part of the population is one that is not sustainable by the whole world population. This is the deepest challenge of our age.

 

– Stephen Rand, Co-Chair of the Jubilee Debt Campaign


Global poverty is not accidental and it is not natural. It certainly is not inevitable.And it is within our power to change it.

It is largely the result of structures, international relationships and government choices that wein the UK can have a large influence on if we care to.
