Jubilee South:

Jubilee South is a broad-based, pluralistic network of popular organizations, social movements, religious groups and debt campaigns in over 50 countries of Africa, Asia and the Pacific, and Latin America and the Caribbean. Founded in 1999, the network and global South movement is part of the struggle of peoples everywhere to build a just  world, overcoming capitalism and imperialism. Its special contribution is to give voice, leadership, and strength to South peoples in the struggle against debt domination. Jubilee South action is based on the recognition that the debt claimed from the South is illegitimate and that in reality it is the North that owes South peoples a tremendous historic, social, economic, ecological debt.Committee for the Abolition of Third World Debt:
