Operation Noah
Find out how you can join Operation Noah’s plan to launch the ‘Carbon Exodus’, inspired by the Exodus of Noah and his ark in the Bible.

Oxfam
Millions of people across the globe are still missing out on health and education. 72 million children can’t go to school and everyday 1,400 women die needlessly in pregnancy and childbirth. Join Oxfam’s campaign on Health and Education for All and demand an end to the scandal that denies millions of people the right to education and health care. Read more personal stories and health and education successes.
Plan
Read more about Plan’s Because I am a Girl Campaign to lift millions out of poverty and into education. Girls in developing countries face discrimination due to gender and poverty so they are left at the bottom of the social ladder. You can use your voice to put pressure on decision makers to get them to take action and deliver education for girls in the world’s poorest countries.
