Each Skype call will take place this week in the buildup to the Stand Up events that will take place around the world this weekend as citizens urge their governments to strive to reach the Millennium Development Goals.
The Millennium campaign looks to help the world reach the eight Millennium Development Goals developed by the United Nations in 2000, with the target of having each of them fulfilled by 2015. The goals focus on ending poverty and the root causes behind it, as well as furthering education, promoting gender equality, reducing child mortality, improving health care and more (you can see the full list here).
Another PR stunt by a useless (at best) corrupting and wasteful organization.
Yep I have to agree. Nothing like “helping” the poor. What a croc…
Do be too hard on them, atleast they are trying!
Great to see the UN using social media.
Does ustream want to be a tool for propaganda?
