30 april 2010: Global Action Week has come to a close, yet the figures from last week are still rising as reports filter in from our coalitions! At the time of writing we have over 3.5 million 1GOAL supporters.
Jessica Alba’s Tour to Africa The U.S. co-chair of 1Goal visits Ghana, Senegal and South Africa to shed light on her campaign to educate all children. Portsmouth’s Aaron Mokoena targets success in FA Cup and World Cup and will try to make the dreams of South Africa president Jacob Zuma come true. Fabio Capello supports pupils’ ‘World Cup’ schooling goal. England football coach Fabio Capello has joined pupils across the globe in showing politicians a yellow card over their failure to secure a ‘World Cup legacy’.
april 2010: Today, 72 million children in the world are denied the chance to go to school. These children could be our next generation’s leaders, sports stars, doctors and teachers. But they face a lifelong struggle against poverty. It doesn’t have to be this way. Since 2000, 40 million more children are in school. Education beats poverty – and gives people the tools to help themselves.
1GOAL is a campaign seizing the power of football to ensure that education for all is a lasting impact of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Raising our voices all over the world we believe that, together, we can make education a reality for the millions of boys and girls who remain out of school.
“This is our chance to show not just out-of-school children, but our own children, that when we make a promise, we keep it. With your help, we could have billions of fans cheering not just for their teams, but for one team: 1GOAL. This is our moment to shine; we can bring millions of children in from the shadows of ignorance, and light up their lives with the legacy of education.” Her Majesty Queen Rania Al-Abdullah Co-Founder and Global Co-Chair, 1GOAL

Antonie Kamerling en politici doen aftrap 1GOAL
Acteur en zanger Antonie Kamerling geeft op woensdag 26 mei om 14:15 uur op het Plein in Den Haag de aftrap voor de Nederlandse campagne van 1GOAL. Kamerling neemt een penalty voor een doel zonder keeper. Een symbolisch ‘schot voor open doel’ dat staat voor de vanzelfsprekendheid van goed onderwijs voor ieder kind. Kamerling speelt daarna een potje voetbal tegen prominente politici en jonge voetballers van voetbalclub RAVA.
1GOAL is een initiatief van de Global Campaign for Education (GCE). De campagne vraagt aandacht voor de vele kinderen in ontwikkelingslanden die niet naar school kunnen en wijst regeringen op hun plicht om te zorgen voor kwalitatief goed onderwijs. 1GOAL roept Nederlanders op om de campagne te ondersteunen door hun handtekening te zetten of een sms te sturen. Wereldwijd hebben al 8 miljoen mensen voor 1GOAL getekend. Het doel is om 30 miljoen handtekeningen in te zamelen.
Rondom het WK voetbal in Johannesburg worden de ingezamelde steunbetuigingen aangeboden aan wereldleiders. Deze internationale actie heeft al veel supporters, waar onder: de Zuid-Afrikaanse president Zuma, Ban Ki-Moon, de Amerikaanse minister van Buitenlandse Zaken Hillary Clinton, (oud)voetballers Robin Van Persie, Zinedine Zidane, Gary Lineker en Thierry Henry. De Colombiaanse zangeres Shakira nam speciaal ter gelegenheid van het WK en de 1GOALcampagne het lied Waka Waka op.
FIFA-president Sepp Blatter en Koningin Rania van Jordanië zijn co-voorzitters van 1GOAL. De Nederlandse 1GOAL ambassadeurs Ruud Gullit en demissionair minister- president Jan Peter Balkenende openden de Nederlandse campagne op 6 oktober 2009 op het Catshuis.
