The 2022 Global Citizen Festival is calling on world leaders to invest in women and girls at the United Nations General Assembly, and ahead of the G20 and COP27 in November, to close the $10 billion climate financing gap, and to help African farmers deal with the global food crisis while providing urgent relief from crushing debt to end extreme poverty as part of its campaign.

“Decades of systemic and political failures have led humanity into the midst of converging and rapidly deteriorating crises – climate, hunger, health, war and conflict,” Hugh Evans, CEO of Global Citizen, said.

”The most marginalised populations are paying the price of the stagnant inaction of our leaders, and now millions of lives, and the future of our planet, are at stake. We refuse to just stand by and watch! We refuse to accept the starvation of multitudes when solutions are readily at hand. We demand a secure future for girls everywhere. We demand governments keep their promises on climate funding. We demand relief from debts that unjustly crash economies. And we demand action now, while there’s still time to change our collective trajectory.”
