RESULTS UK

RESULTS is a movement of passionate, committed, everyday people. Together we use our voices to influence political decisions that will bring an end to poverty. Our campaigners receive training, support, and inspiration to become skilled advocates. In time, they learn to effectively advise policy makers, guiding them towards decisions that improve access to education, health, and economic opportunity. Backed by the in-depth research and the political expertise of staff, RESULTS campaigners realise the incredible power they possess to use their voices to change the world. How we work: Grassroots advocacy: At the heart of RESULTS are our campaigners — people from all walks of life who want to make a difference. They receive training, support, and inspiration to become skilled advocates, influencing the political decisions that will bring an end to poverty. Our campaigners speak and act powerfully within their communities, spending months, and often years, building relationships with their elected representatives and other decision makers. Parliamentary advocacy: Recognising the central role that governments play in allocating resources and setting policy to fight poverty, we work hard to build powerful, long-lasting relationships with MPs and peers in the Parliaments in the UK and Europe. We develop champions for our issues across all political parties, and influence decision-makers in the UK and internationally. Policy advocacy: Advocacy without policy is like style without substance. Through our policy work we develop rigorous expertise on our issues, which allows us to engage in top-level policy discussions with civil servants both in the UK and in Europe, as well as those working for international organisations like the World Bank and United Nations agencies that are crucial in the global fight against poverty. We make sure all our grassroots and parliamentary work is informed by that same smart policy intelligence.
