Changemakers we've supported:
"As we are a grassroots movement from the Global South, we don't have the capacity to transfer resources between our long-disconnected territories. Having a partner that can support us with this enormous task is allowing us to mobilise different countries and people around the globe during coordinated days — creating international awareness of the importance of debt cancellations."
