What's been happening

During the past seven years Comic Relief has been campaigning about issues at home and all over the world.

From debt and trade to domestic violence and elder abuse, we have seen real change take place as a result of our work. We see global and local campaigning as a major part of the way we help build long term, large scale, positive change in the world around us.

2005 was a big year for Comic Relief:

As a member of the Make Poverty History campaign in the UK and supporter of the Global Call to Action against Poverty. We played a key part in creating LIVE 8 and ensuring it became a reality. As the driving force behind the Global Campaign for Education's Send My Friend To School activity Continuing our ongoing ground-breaking work with Day Chocolate to promote the educational and campaigning elements of the fairly traded chocolate bar, Dubble.

What happened
We're proud of what you have achieved with Make Poverty History and intend to keep you involved in our plans to make the world a better place. To make this happen we need to be able to call on your voice and your support from time to time in the future.

Together we've made the G8 leaders (and the rest of the globe) more aware of our collective responsibility for those less fortunate than us.

 

Now and Beyond

In 2006 we have had to persuade the G8 to stick to their promises: - to deliver on the offers of aid and debt relief - while we have continued to push hard for changes in trade agreements. We have needed to do this to ensure people in the developing world can stand shoulder to shoulder with us as equals in the world's marketplace.

cr teacher logoEXTRAORDINARY SCHOOLS - GIVE EVERY CHILD AN EDUCATION
You may have seen in the press that school children from the UK will meet Nelson Mandela and Gordon Brown to speak up for the 100 million children around the world who are missing an education. It will be an amazing start to what will be an extraordinary year in the push to make sure every child gets the education they deserve, taught by a qualified teacher.

* * * cr teacher Red Nose Day 2007 – A MASSIVE MOMENT FOR EXTRAORDINARY LEARNING

To continue the push for every child to go to school, Red Nose Day will have an extraordinary education theme – what kids in Africa need to learn and how we can help make this happen.

At its heart will be a great big plan to connect thousands of school kids in the UK with extraordinary school kids in Africa. We'll be looking for five "super-schools" in the UK to join in a partnership with five "super-schools" in Africa. These five "super-schools" pairs will be the hub of a massive interactive online resource to carry voices, views, learning and experiences from across the UK to Africa and back.

As well as the normal Red Nose Day fundraising fun, the day will also be a chance to continue speaking up to ensure world leaders keep the promises they've made to get every primary school age child taught by a proper teacher, in a proper school, by 2015.
