The work to end global poverty has caused a groundswell of interfaith collaboration across the boundaries of the past. We seek to:

• Generate empowerment, solidarity, community and agency among participants in support of the MDGs.
• Facilitate advocacy with representatives and senators through the creation of urban and regional “hubs.”
• Showcase international voices.
• Emphasize women as the solution to poverty in the developing world.
• Highlight the dynamism of young leadership.
• Utilize technology for efficient communication and networking.
• Provide opportunities for learning and sharing models of education, action, and advocacy.
