africa: FAIR AND TRANSPARENT ARBITRATION ON DEBT

This Issues Paper from Afrodad is an attempt to help move the debate on debt in Africa beyond the unfulfilled demands made by the severely indebted low income debtor countries and by global civil society for debt cancellation. Global civil society, African governments and the intergovernmental institutions are called upon to demand and work towards the establishment of a fair and transparent arbitration mechanism under the United Nations as part of a sustainable way of finding a solution to the debt crisis.
