Dear ONE member,
Sign the petitionIn 2003 African leaders made a bold commitment to invest in agriculture, food security and rural development. Yet while some have made notable progress, others have fallen short.
It’s time for our leaders to take action.
Earlier this year we achieved a major success when, thanks to ONE members like you, Tanzania’s President Kikwete agreed to champion this issue with his fellow leaders.
But he needs your support. Leaders are meeting next month in Addis Ababa and we need to make sure they hear our message loud and clear.
Click here to automatically sign the petition, which reads:
Dear African leaders,
It’s time to break the vicious cycle of hunger and poverty. When you meet in Addis Ababa please recommit to investing in agriculture and nutrition to help pull 31 million Africans out of poverty and save 12 million children from stunting.
With 50% of our contitent living in poverty and 40% of young children suffering from malnutrition, there is no time for delay.
Please join me in signing the petition right now. One click will automatically add your voice to our growing movement:

Medical Practitioners Calls off their strike in Kenya

By
Medical practitioners operating at Kenya's largest public hospital called Kenyatta National Hospital went on strike yesterday and paralysed all medical services within that health institution for 10 hours. They were demanding that the government of Kenya should pay them their due arrears for 11 months adding up to a total of 87 million Kenya shillings. Patients waited patiently in the hospital wards and on long queues for the strike to be called off or solved by the relevant authority. Relevant ministers were at that moment attending a constitution conference at the Kabete about 10 kilometers away from the hospital. When PHM Kenya representative arrived to the hospital, the hospital administration had already made promise to pay the nurses as soon as possible and the nurses agreed to resume back to work this morning. I will be going there at 2:00 pm to meet some officials to see if PHM could be of help to any side. More of this later..... In solidarity. Erick Otieno Owuor
