OVER 30 organizations across Asia, Africa, and Latin America have united to launch the first International Peoples Tribunal against the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank “for their accountability in public debt accumulation, worsening of the climate crisis, violating rights to basic goods and essential services, transgressing the right to food and causing widespread hunger.
”“In the face of crises of inequality, debt, and climate change, the Tribunal represents a bold attempt to shine a light on the IMF and the World Bank and the adverse impacts of their programs and policies on communities and the environment. It is a call for justice, for reparations, and demanding a new model of development -- one that centers on people and the planet, and not driven by profits,” Nacpil said in a statement.
