Why we campaign and advocate change
When the world seems saturated with bad news, frustration can generate apathy. World Vision campaigns to keep real issues – and real solutions – in the public eye.
Ultimately, we aim to raise awareness and secure aid and funding for impoverished communities.
Money alone can't create sustainable change. To break the cycle of poverty, loans and spiraling debt, self-sufficient and smarter programs need to be adopted.
Long-term substantial change, like improvements in education, can have a ripple effect through a community’s standard of health, level of HIV and AIDS and income generation.
For the Millennium Development Goals to be realised, governments must ensure substantial and suitable aid and fair trade. Only then will the 8 goals be achieved, and today’s appalling worldwide disparity between standards of living be relieved.
