For the first time in 20 years, we are losing progress on ending extreme poverty. COVID-19 has disrupted every facet of daily life around the world with over 150 million people predicted to be pushed into extreme poverty by the end of 2021. As many countries face inwards to address domestic needs, the devastating secondary effects of COVID-19 are widening the gaps of inequality around the world. Our #StopTheDeadlyDivide campaign focuses on the urgent need to work together to find ways to prevent the world’s progress from backsliding during the COVID-19 crisis.

Our #StopTheDeadlyDivide campaign this month highlights the growing divide in access to vaccines and calls on Canada to support the TRIPS intellectual property waiver tabled at the World Trade Organization (WTO).
We bring our efforts together so that this planet, by 2030, will see the elimination of the worst aspects of poverty.

Join us for this webinar to mark World Immunization Week! The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of vaccines as one of the great scientific innovations of our time. To end the pandemic, the majority of the world needs to be immune to COVID-19 and the safest way to achieve this is with a vaccine.
A Fellowship program now exists in Canada thanks to a recent collaboration between RESULTS U.S. and Results Canada.
In addition to collaboration with a network of worldwide ACTION partners, Results Canada has the support of sister RESULTS organizations located in Australia, Japan, South Korea, the UK and the U.S. Having an international team like this means there are always great ideas and colleagues willing to share in pursuit of the same goal of eradicating extreme poverty.
