Most of us want to do more for the world, but you know how it is - things crop up, you get busy...

In this section you'll find seven very good reasons why we think you should get involved with us.

We consider everyone who contributes an activist - from young campaigners overseas fighting for their rights, to the artists who designed our website banners, to our MySpace friends who leave supportive comments - every voice is a voice for change.

And if you don't believe that you can make a difference, just look here and here and here. And if you still don't believe us, read why Salamina, an ActionAid activist from South Africa, thinks that we can make a difference in her community.

Factfile:

  • One billion people go to bed hungry. Temperature rises of 2 to 3°C will mean an extra 200 million people could face hunger.
  • If we covered just three percent of the Sahara desert with solar panels we could generate all the electricity the world needs.
