Jubilee+2000+group+18

Jubilee 2000, or Jubilee Debt Campaign (JDC) is a debt campaign wanting all the rich powerful countries to call off the debts third world countries have to pay them. The world's most poor countries are forced to pay over $100 million every day to the richer countries in debt repayments, and at the same time poverty is killing millions of their people. Debts should be cancelled because they are unjust in terms of their origin, and also because they worsen poverty.
