January 15, 2015, Join World Vision South Africa and - along with over 1,000 civil society organizations across the world - for a massive global launch of the Action/2015 campaign. Action/2015 is a growing movement, which aims to make 2015 a critical year where we demand ambitious agreements on poverty, inequality and climate change for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The SDGs will affect the future of civil society, governments and the international community for the next 15 years. Action/2015 aims to ensure that when political leaders meet and make decisions on the SDGs at two major UN summits, they will feel the unavoidable pressure from the world’s citizens and will be more likely to take urgent and decisive action on human rights and climate change.

Members of the action/2015 movement, including World Vision SA will be carrying out an array of exciting and inspiring launch activities on 15 January 2015 at national, local and community levels. The launch of action/2015 is an important opportunity to let the world know who we are, why we are coming together and to inspire others to join our fight for the rights of older people.
