STAND UP is an exciting and innovative challenge in which we are attempting to set an official Guinness World Record for the most number of people ever to STAND UP Against Poverty on October 15-16. A minimum of ten thousand people must physically “STAND UP” Against poverty; we have just 24 hours to set this record. Every person counts!

STAND UP is a mobilisation initiative designed to coincide with global mobilisations around the International Day of Poverty Eradication and the White Band Day of the Global Call to Action Against Poverty on October 17th.

STAND UP will raise awareness of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and publicly demonstrate the growing global support for the achievement of these Goals.

STAND UP is an opportunity for your organization to be a part of an exciting and innovative global event in support of poverty eradication and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals.
