000601 Njoki Njehu - Breaking the Chains of Debt: Jubilee 2000

Third World countries are reeling under staggering debt. The World Bank and the IMF impose punitive austerity programs that result in massive cuts in vital social services like education and health. Much of the debt was accrued by despots who lined their own pockets. Nearly half of the money due is from 30 destitute African countries. Jubilee 2000, a worldwide movement, is calling for the cancellation of all Third World debt.

Njoki Njehu of Kenya is a grassroots organiser, environmentalist and women's advocate. She is Executive Director of 50 Years is Enough. She is also on the Executive Committee of the Jubilee 2000/USA campaign. The campaign draws its inspiration from Hebrew Scriptures, which describe a Year of Jubilee every 50 years where social inequalities are rectified and all debts are cancelled.
