- Jubilee 2025: A year to act on debt justice1.28 MB
At a time when a total of 130 countries in the global south are critically indebted, and 3.3-billion people live in countries that spend more on interest payments than they do on health or education, 2025 presents a critical moment to challenge and transform debt injustice.
Two major events create this opportunity: First is the Catholic Church’s declaration of 2025 as a Jubilee year, which has given rise to the Jubilee 2025 debt justice campaign, and second, the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD4) in Sevilla, Spain.
Together, these events offer pathways not only for debt cancellation in the global south, but also for the structural reforms needed to prevent future crises and establish fair and effective solutions to today’s debt crisis.
