Millenium Development Goals - 09.10.2009
Towns and cities united against poverty
The Millennium Development Goals campaign and United Cities and Local Government (UCLG) call on the mayors from around the world to express their support to the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs).
The "Mayors in action united against poverty" campaign (16-18 October 2009) encourages mayors to display theur commitment to eradicating poverty, in a number of ways:
- Displaying a white banner with a knot in it on the facade of public buildings.
- Informing City Hall's personnel about the MDGs.
- Sending a press release explaining the role of local authorities in the achievement of the MDGs and your contribution.
