It is the chance of our lifetime. We are the first generation with the resources, the knowledge and the skills to eliminate poverty. 

We are the first generation to have made promises to our fellow humanity to help them live dignified lives.

These promises are known as the Millennium Development Goals. 

We have until 2015 to meet the Goals and to keep our word. We can’t let this chance slip through our fingers – we may not have it again.

Caritas believes in the Millennium Development Goals.

Caritas believes all of us have the right to escape abject poverty. Caritas believes we can keep the moral commitment we have made.
