Supporters of the Global Poverty Project

"I am delighted to hear about the Global Poverty Project and its aim to strengthen the movement to end extreme poverty and achieve the Millennium Development Goals...This project is inspiring and has the potential to engage and educate thousands of people in the coming years... I am interested in supporting the project through my personal endorsement, helping deliver the presentation in time and encouraging others to be involved." Hugh Jackman |

"We are impressed particularly by (the) very practical approach towards mobilizing communities and policy makers around the world, so that they in turn take practical and measurable steps to combat poverty... We are honoured therefore to formally lend our support to the Global Poverty Project." Achmat Dangor, CEO, Nelson Mandela Foundation |

"Many of us in the development sector see firsthand the experience of those living in extreme poverty and know that our efforts as agencies can only go so far. We know that it will be through the energy and actions of the world's peoples that we will truly make inroads into achieving the end of extreme poverty. It can happen. It must happen. By working on an ongoing community wide education and engagement model, this project will add to the work of other like-minded campaigns. Through Global Poverty Project presentations, Action Groups and the major film, we will reach out to those who have not been involved to date, to take note and take action. I know through my time with the Reconciliation Movement in Australia that this model can and will be successful. Australians embrace campaigns of fairness and compassion." Dimity Fifer, CEO, Australian Volunteers International |
