🇬🇧 The UK chapter of Debt for Climate ⚖️Taking action to cancel Global South debt to keep fossil fuels in the ground and fund a just transition
Ahead of the UN #FfD4 summit in Seville, we joined 20+ orgs in central London to say: #CancelDebtChooseHope

54 countries are in debt crisis but rich countries are BLOCKING solutions

No one should have to play Jenga with their economy, choosing between public services or debt payments

🧱 Yesterday in London, with @debtjustice.bsky.social + others, we stacked a GIANT Jenga on the Southbank, exposing how fragile Global South finances are under colonial debt

As world leaders @ #FfD4 meet in Seville to defend a system build on extraction, we build resistance! ✊
#CancelDebtChooseHope
🌍 It's the global day of action for economic justice!

We joined 20+ organisations on London's southbank with a giant jenga tower to show how the system is stacked against the global south.

As world leaders meet in Seville we say #CancelDebtChooseHope 💥✊🏽

Europe helped launch global financing reform in 2002. Now it’s gutting it to protect the colonial status quo!

At #FfD4, we say: Back a real UN debt convention. End the hypocrisy. ✊🏾

🔥 END THE HYPOCRISY

At #FfD4, the Global North is dodging climate finance, pushing loans not grants, and burying obligations in dirty deals

This isn’t aid. It’s a trap!

There can be no #DebtJustice without #ClimateJustice, & no climate justice without debt justice!

European leaders must not miss the opportunity to support an #EraOfJustice & support transformative debt reform to end the vicious cycle at #FfD4!

The Global South is trapped in a vicious debt cycle under a broken system. Ahead of #FfD4, we demand real solutions for southern voices. The world must not stay silent

The @oecd-ocde.bsky.social's DAC Chair says int'l development cooperation needs more 'transparency & accountability'.
We agree, but we can't wait for another closed-door reflection exercise. Any redesign must take place in the only fully inclusive space where all countries have an equal say - the UN

Part 2 of our debt jubilee history lesson 📖

This isn’t just a debt crisis - it's a crime!

The Global South is trapped by illegitimate, colonial debt. Time to cancel it all. No excuses. No delays.

Debt cancellation isn’t radical - it’s ancient!

From Babylon to the Bible, societies wrote off debts to restore justice.

So when we demand #debtcancellation today, we’re not being extreme. We’re following a long, time-tested tradition!

The world’s poorest countries are paying more in debt than they receive in aid!

📢 This is not development!

It’s a broken, colonial system.

#FfD4 must change that: support Para 10 & Para 43 e alt2.

Debt-for-nature swaps have failed to deliver real benefits for the Global South - so why expect them to fund the clean energy transition?

We break down why we need grants + debt cancellation, not more debt swaps

Read in @devex.com w/ Power Shift Africa -
Opinion: Why debt swaps are failing the renewable energy transition
Given the performance of debt-for-nature swaps to date, the idea that these could finance the clean energy transition is unsound.

In the midst of a crisis where we see the rise of fascism, the destruction of our ecosystems, and the violations of our rights, it is more urgent than ever to achieve the unconditional cancellation of the illegitimate debts of the Global South to overthrow the capitalist system. ✊🏾
