Spending on health, education and social programs have all been slashed over the past few years, sometimes by up to 30 per cent. And all this because of the growth in Zambia’s national debt.
BlackRock is one of Zambia’s biggest lender, and if paid back in full, then high interest rates mean the country will repay almost twice as much as was lent.
Right now, the Zambian government is going into negotiations with BlackRock. Join us to hear directly from Zambian campaigners about the impact of the debt debt crisis and the campaign.
This is an online webinar at 6:30 on the 7th April.
