Share the Story: Volunteering for the MDGs

CBA contributes to "Share the Story: Volunteering for the MDGs"

December 2010

As the Millennium Declaration set year 2015 as the target for achieving the Millennium Development Goals, the world needs the ingenuity, solidarity and creativity of many millions of ordinary people through voluntary action.
In the lead-up to International Volunteer Day (5 December), CBA Jamaica, CBA Morocco, CBA Namibia, and CBA Samoa join the UN Volunteers as they cross the globe online. Starting on Saturday, December 4, 2010 at 14:00 GMT +12, the online film festival, stop in 12 time zones, to see how voluntary action is challenging the world's big issues related to environment, hunger, education, maternal health, gender equality, and HIV/AIDs. These stories don't make the news, but they are changing the world. During the 24 hours that our journey will take we invite you to be inspired, share your story, and connect with others interested in ending poverty.
