Jubilee Debt Campaign is the UK’s campaigning successor to Jubilee 2000 and Drop the Debt, comprising much of the UK’s original Jubilee 2000 membership. JDC is a coalition of local/regional groups and national organisations, whose 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. JDC’s overall mission is an end to all unpayable poor country debts by fair and transparent means.
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.
