ONE member and Bafana Bafana striker Benni McCarthy has an invitation for you: tell world leaders which global issues they should take urgent action on as part of the You Choose campaign.

Right now, world leaders are starting to think about new global goals they will set themselves to tackle poverty.

The Millennium Development Goals which were set in 2000 will run out in 2015, so new targets to fight extreme poverty are needed. We’ve made amazing progress in some areas, but in others there is still a long way to go.

ONE has come together with the United Nations and other organisations to make sure that everyone has a say in what the targets are.

So if you were in charge, what would you prioritise? Better job opportunities, affordable food, equality between men and women, better internet access or something else?

The decisions that world leaders make in the next few months will have a big impact on people across Africa, so make sure your voice is heard.

If you’re in South Africa you can send a free SMS message to 30667. If you are anywhere else, have your say at www.one.org/youchoose.
