Results UK is a movement of passionate, committed people. Together as staff and grassroots activists, we advocate directly to parliamentarians, the UK Government and other decision-makers with the aim of guiding them towards commitments that reduce poverty and inequality.
Our advocacy is built on global solidarity, partnership and shared empowerment. This is crucial to challenging the racist, colonial and oppressive narratives that have underpinned development and that help to both create and maintain poverty.
Our power lies in our people – our staff, board and partners, and especially our volunteers. Together, we raise our voices with UK government decision makers to influence the changes needed to end poverty with improved policies, more efficient programmes and increased resources.
We advocate on specific issues related to the eradication of poverty and injustice. We take action on issues guided by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – things that all countries have agreed to work towards achieving by 2030. Results has particular expertise and focus on several policy areas where we can make the most impact.
Recent campaigns include tackling the rising rates if TB in the UK and funding education for girls and women. As part of the London group, you can meet likeminded people and organise together to do additional activities, such as blog-writing, social media, running events or group campaigning actions.
It is a very flexible role and a great way to gain skills and experience in campaigning and advocacy, international development, blog-writing, social media, letter writing, event organising and more!
