Micah Challenge is a global Christian campaign. Our aims are to deepen our engagement with impoverished and marginalised communities; and to challenge international leaders, and leaders of rich and poor countries, to achieve the Millennium Development Goals, and so halve absolute global poverty by 2015!
The Micah Call is a global petition with signatures representing over 1.5 million people telling our leaders to keep their promises to the poor and achieve the millennium development goals. Sign the Micah Call!
