Jubilee USA Network: End of Year Report December 19th, 2024
Jubilee USA as a coalition of religious, development and advocacy groups has won more than $130 billion in debt relief for the world’s poorest economies. Because of the global agreements Jubilee won, that $130 billion is invested in schools, hospitals and other social infrastructure. In Sub-Saharan Africa alone, 54 million kids have gone to school who never would have seen the inside of a classroom.
In recent years, Jubilee USA won debt relief in Haiti and the three Ebola-impacted West African countries, super bankruptcy legislation for Puerto Rico, three international agreements to promote responsible lending and stop predatory lending, two victories to keep student loan interest rates low, G7 and G20 agreements to curb tax evasion and corruption and promoted trade agreements that help end poverty.
To this day, across the United States and around our world, Jubilee USA works on debt, tax, trade and transparency policies that help end poverty
