Stand Up2010:September 17th - 19th
When world leaders gather at the United Nations for the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) Review Summit in September, the voices of their citizens will follow them, telling them, loudly and clearly: “We will no longer stay seated or silent in the face of poverty and the broken promises to end it!”
September 17th -19th, 2010: Three days of mobilization enabling all constituencies and anyone wanting to be a part of the mobilization to organize and participate in a wide range of events, relevant actions and initiatives to show their support for the achievement of the MDGs and have their voices heard articulating their demands for delegations attending the Summit.
Over this three day period, we are encouraging people and their organisations to continue to incorporate the Stand UP moment and pledge reading into their events and where relevant and possible to invite media to cover their events and initiatives. The Stand Up pledge will be adapted this year in line with the new timing to specifically reference the MDG Review Summit. As always, these pledges need to be adapted to incorporate relevant messaging for each participating organization or group.
