Make Poverty History - review of the year

As well as our rather nifty review of 2005, I've just seen a really timely Make Poverty History review on the main Oxfam website. As our campaigning manager Richard English says in his verdict on the whole year: "Whatever part you played in 2005 to help Make Poverty History you can feel proud of what has been achieved... One of the most powerful sounds of 2005 was a click of fingers - the stark illustration of the shocking fact that a child dies as a result of poverty every three seconds. 2005 showed us that together we are able to force the world's most powerful leaders to confront this challenge." What's most important is to remember that the campaign to end poverty is here to stay. As Richard says, "Oxfam is in it for the long haul and with our partners in the UK and around the world in 2006 we will redouble our efforts."
