Global Development Matters is designed to engage U.S. citizens and leaders in examining how rich world policies affect global poverty reduction.

As we make decisions on the eve of the 2008 Presidential election, understanding the connection between global development and U.S. political choices becomes more relevant than ever. As a rich and generous country, the U.S. should be at the forefront of global development. In reality, we rank a pitiful 14th out of the 21 richest nations.

If we the people speak, our country’s policymakers will listen. Join our campaign to change the world and tell our leaders that Global Development Matters— to all of us.

Global Development Matters is a project of the Center for Global Development (CGD), an independent, nonprofit think tank that works to reduce global poverty and inequality by encouraging policy change in the U.S. and other rich countries.
