 Aim: ONE achieves change through advocacy.
- “We hold world leaders to account for the
commitments they've made to fight extreme poverty,
and we campaign for better development policies,
more effective aid and trade reform. We also support

to ensure policies to beat poverty are implemented
effectively”

 How the organisation works:
1) It finds problems that are related to World
problems which may range from World Poverty to
World Hunger
2) It then comes up with solutions for the problem.
3) If it meets any problems like Government banning
of its advertisement, it will call for petitions to be
signed from their followers.
4) It will then get followers to help rally their idea.

 ONE's origins go back to 2002 and the founding of DATA
(debt, AIDS, trade Africa), the anti-poverty advocacy
organisation with which ONE merged in 2008.
 Following their work together during the Jubilee "Drop
the Debt" movement, Bono, Bob Geldof, Bobby Shriver,
Jamie Drummond and Lucy Matthew joined together in
March, 2002 to create a new advocacy organisation
called DATA (debt, AIDS, trade, Africa)
 Their Work continued and it has developed to what it is
today.

5. Impact of ONE Organisation
5
 ONE has been a relentless advocate in the fight against
extreme poverty. ONE and its 2 million members, along
with ONE’s predecessor organization DATA and other
non-profit partners, have played an important role in
persuading political leaders to create and/or fund smart,
effective programs and policies that have saved lives and
improved futures in poor countries.
 An Example of its impacts is:
- In 2010 ONE’s Germany team successfully campaigned to
prevent the German government from cutting funds to
the highly effective Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and
Malaria
