Huge congratulations to our co-founder, Richard Curtis, who will be honoured at the 15th Governors Awards in November alongside industry titans Quincy Jones, Juliet Taylor, Michael G. Wilson, and Barbara Broccoli. Richard's dedication to social change is being recognised with the prestigious Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award. 🎉 His journey began 40 years ago with the co-founding of Comic Relief UK and USA, raising over $2 billion and impacting the lives of more than 170 million people. He co-created Make Poverty History and helped produce the Live 8 concerts. He also established the ethical investment campaign Make My Money Matter, which has helped transfer £1.3 trillion into sustainable pensions. Not to mention he’s also the creator behind some of the most iconic films: “Notting Hill,” “Bridget Jones’s Diary,” “Love Actually”.

Making Change Through Design... Our co-founder, Richard Curtis, famously said, "To make things happen, you have to make things." That's the spirit behind our exciting partnership with Reading University, a leader in graphic design and typography. Led by the brilliant Greg Bunbury, we challenged 2nd year students to create impactful posters and campaign assets promoting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Design is a cornerstone of any successful social movement. It inspires, motivates, and sparks vital conversations. By combining artistic expression with activism, we can drive real progress towards achieving the SDGs. This collaboration is just the beginning. We're eager to engage with more universities and talented design students to bring the SDGs to life through the power of visual communication.

For around a year now, we’ve been campaigning on global finance reform - joining the growing chorus of voices, spearheaded often by Barbados PM Mia Mottley, calling for a fairer and more ambitious system to deliver finance to where it is most needed. Most recently, we published an open letter addressed to G20 leaders, calling on them to, among other things, triple investment into development banks. This journey has led us to something called IDA.   The International Development Association (IDA) is the World Bank’s people and planet fund for those most in need, delivering cheap loans and grants to the least developed economies. This kind of affordable, long-term finance is a vital tool in tackling the polycrisis and will be integral to achieving the Global Goals. As well as supporting countries respond to crises, IDA funding can serve as the bedrock for sustainable economic growth.   The fund is mostly made up of contributions from wealthier countries and is topped up or ‘replenished’ every three years. However, as purse strings tighten around the world, there is concern this year’s replenishment may not meet the moment.   Last week, African leaders gathered in Nairobi to discuss their priorities for IDA and the impact of the fund on their continent. Their statements are a great reminder of the importance of IDA, and why it is a win-win for people and planet. Find out more about what the leaders had to say: https://lnkd.in/esdYPepK

Last week, leaders gathered in DC for the Spring Meetings of the The World Bank and International Monetary Fund. The sentiment coming out of the Meetings is clear: while progress is happening on the reform agenda, these efforts are too slow to meet ongoing global challenges. Key insights reveal a concerning trend: the necessary financial support for vulnerable countries is significantly lacking. As the largest provider of grants and low-interest loans in these countries, IDA – the World Bank’s People and Planet Fund – plays a crucial role. Speakers at our #FinanceTheFuture event emphasized the win-win impacts of IDA investments for the #GlobalGoals – Win wins such as how investing in sustainable agriculture and female farmers simultaneously helps fight hunger, and poverty, and gender inequality and the climate crisis - and the global food price crisis - all at the same time!!!! Super smart strategic investments that benefit us all… So it’s time to intensify our efforts and make sure this year’s replenishment is the most successful ever. Let’s #FinancetheFuture to achieve the #GlobalGoals
