The biggest movements came together years back under the banner of Making Poverty an urgent action for more and better aid, debt cancellation and trade justice. Together with a coalition of organizations, many were convinced to wear white bands and send emails to the Ministers about poverty.
As a result, the campaign ensured that poverty around the world was placed higher on the national and global agenda than ever before, the G8 leaders cancelled the debts of several poor countries, aid to Africa was doubled, and promises of huge new financial aid. Significant steps were made, and the fight against poverty continues and will continue in the future.
