STAND UP Against Poverty was launched by the UN Millennium Campaign to mobilize people around the world to STAND UP Against Poverty and for the Millennium Development Goals. Six years ago, 189 world leaders sat down and agreed to eradicate extreme poverty and achieve the Millennium Development Goals by 2015. On October 15&16, people across the world will STAND UP to remind them of this promise and set a Guiness World Record for the most people to STAND UP for a cause. Events range from a large concert in Rome, to STAND UP moments during Spanish football matches such as the FC Barcelona game, to impoverished women in Tanzania coming together.
