Countdown to Copenhagen around the world


The thousands who have taken the Copenhagen pledge across Britain and Ireland are just part of a bigger picture.

The Countdown to Copenhagen campaign is a truly global movement in the face of an urgent global issue.

We can all play our part. Start by taking our Copenhagen pledge.

In developing countries

There's no one better placed to talk about the true costs of climate change than people living in the world's poorest countries.

Christian Aid partners in Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa and Asia are making sure their voices are heard, either by participating in the Copenhagen talks, or pressing their own governments into urgent action, as we have seen in India, Bolivia and the Philippines. See the video at the top of the page.
