we are a movement for the global generation. when we speak, the world listens. when we act, the world joins us. now is the time for for us to use our collective voice to encourage world leaders, ngos, and corporations to support the global goals so that we can be the generation to tackle climate change and end extreme poverty by 2030. over the past ten years, global citizens have taken 23.4 million actions. to get we helped generate commitments and policy announcements from world leaders valid at over $47 billion. these commitments have affected the lives of 880 million people to date with interventions that include vaccinate ing a child, reducing ocean-bound plastic, providing men the value health education and make sure kids stay in school during emergencies and conflict. joining us and take action to power the movement to end extreme poverty.
those ten years of advocacy equal twenty three million actions affecting 880 million lives to date. and driving financial commitments from governments and businesses of over $47 billion. great job, global citizens! [ cheers ] that s us, yes. i think that s you. ari, savannah, come on out. hello, global citizens and that was just the first ten years. can you imagine what we can do in the next ten? ari, i think we re about to make this crowd go crazy. i think so. nct 127 are a global phenomenon combining electrifying sounds with dizzying choreography.
