43.7 Million Mobilize Worldwide to Call for End to Poverty
October 2007
The official tally is in, and this month’s Global Call to Action Against Poverty mobilization set a new world record for largest international mobilization, with 43.7 million activists participating in coordinated events around the world. Our partners and allies in Palestine took part in the action, with nearly a million people in the Occupied Territories participating in demonstrations, meetings and cultural events designed to call attention to the problems of poverty in Gaza and the West Bank and around the world.
Our thanks and congratulations go out to all who took part in this record-breaking action.
