The Spanish Millennium Campaign was created in 2004 to build up alliances with social platforms, local and regional governments, youth organizations and other key constituencies in Spain with the purpose of demanding the fulfillment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and, more particularly, of Goal 8 commitments: more quantity of Official Development Aid (ODA), better quality of ODA, debt relief and trade justice.

As a result of these alliances, in February 2005 a coalition named Pobreza Cero (Poverty Zero) was formed bringing together more than 400 NGOs and civil society organizations in Spain. That same year, the Spanish President, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, received the Alliance Against Poverty at the Presidential Palace.
