Every child is born to live. Andy Burnham, appoint an International Envoy for Children and Young People.
Every child and young person should have the chance to survive and thrive. Sign the petition and ask Andy Burnham to make their futures a priority across Britain’s international cooperation and the G20 presidency in 2027.
For the first time, progress on child survival is going backwards. A child dies every six seconds from something we already know how to prevent. But when we get this right, children don’t just survive, they thrive and grow into adults who build stronger futures for themselves and their countries.
In 2027, Britain hosts the G20: a chance to fix a financial system that fails to invest in the next generation, leaving many countries spending more on debt repayments than on health and education combined.
Dear Prime Minister: Make children's futures Britain's mission.
You've promised to rewire Britain and back the places left behind. In 2027, Britain hosts the G20. That's your chance to make that same mission global.
Appoint an international envoy for children and young people. Task them with ensuring the whole of the UK's approach to international cooperation, including Britain's G20, is geared to ensure children survive and young people thrive.
Every child is born to live. Make this the chapter where Britain proves it.
