The Motherhood Helps Kick Off #Action2015 Today

2015 is a big year for a few reasons. Not only do I have a 15 year old in ’15, but this year marks the end of the first UN Millennium Development Goals – the most successful global anti-poverty effort in history – and the creation of the next set of goals.

So, how great that the UN and the ONE Campaign brought in a group of 15 year olds to celebrate! All born in 2000 when the first MDGs were created, and all kids who will inherit the world in 2030, the target date for the next set of goals, they filmed a video with the UN Secretary General, kicking off #Action2015 today (my daughter Erin is sitting front right):

#Action2015 is mobilizing the support of young people around the world to empower them to create one vision for their generation to end poverty, inequality and climate change.
