Communicating how you feel about issues affecting your life is something that many people take for granted but millions of poor and marginalised people around the world never get the chance to have their voices heard. Millions also don't have access to the information that they desperately need to make informed decisions about their lives. At Panos London we believe that whether the problem is HIV and AIDS, climate change, civil conflict or poverty, poor people in developing countries have a right to know about, debate and have a say in decisions that affect their lives. Panos London is part of the worldwide Panos Network of independent institutes working to promote the active participation of poor and marginalised people in finding solutions to the problems they face, through media and communication projects. Our work helps to ensure that people in developing countries are included in decision-making processes and have access to the information they need to improve their lives.

Story

Please dig deep and donate now. You will be safe in the knowledge that you money will be well spent on causing us much agony which I know will bring a smile to many of your faces.

Panos London is a fantastic charity which aims to promote effective communication on a broad range of topics including climate change and the environment, healthcare, conflict, poverty, aid and debt through media and communication projects. Their work on the right to sexual and reproductive health and improving media reporting on TB is particularly important to us.

Or in their words......

"Panos London promotes the participation of poor and marginalised people in national and international development debates through media and communication projects. We are part of the worldwide Panos Network of independent institutes working to ensure that information is used more effectively to foster debate, pluralism and democracy."
