From CNN to The Huffington Post, the world is talking about the innovative movement that is downsizing global poverty. The Borgen Project believes that leaders of the most powerful nations on earth should be doing more to address global poverty. The national campaign is working to make poverty a focus of U.S. and U.K. foreign policy.

Are you passionate about making a difference in the world? Look no further The Borgen Project is an international organization that works at the political level to improve living conditions for people impacted by war, famine, and poverty.
