Successor to Jubilee 2000 and Drop the Debt, JDC is a coalition of local/regional groups and national organisations. Our focus is on changing UK government policy on debt, including to ensure that the maximum influence is brought to bear on the World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF) - on whose governing bodies the UK is represented.
The vision of the Jubilee Debt Campaign is a world in which the people of the poorest countries are liberated from the crushing burden of debt, and in which the future financial arrangements between rich and poor nations are founded on fairness, accountability and transparency.
The work of the Coalition is co-ordinated by a London-based Secretariat under the strategic direction of an elected Board. Local/regional groups and national organisations are equal partners in the coalition, both when it comes to campaigning and as regards policy and direction. Jubilee Scotland - a separate entity - has a reserved place on the JDC Board.
