South - North Consultation On the Global Debt Campaign Beyond 2000
Dakar Senegal 15 - 16 December 2000
Dear Friends in the Jubilee 2000 and Global Debt Movement
As you may be aware Jubilee South has been proposing and planning for some
time now an South-North international consultation before the end of the
year, where our campaigns and movements can come together and strategize on
how we take the anti-debt campaign forward beyond year 2000.
To this end we in Jubilee South have been undertaking a number of dialogues
with our partners in the North to establish a good basis for this
consultation. Thus far there has been firm support for the idea of an
international consultation.
The consultation shall be a chance to:
* reflect on our collective achievements and identify the continuing
challenges we face
* define a common agenda and goals around which we can work togethe
* formulate strategies for going forward and building on the gains
and momentum achieved
On December 11 to 14, there will be an Pan African Conference (Dakar 2000)
which Jubilee South is involved in organizing We thought it would be a good
idea to hold the South-North Consultation right after this event, which a
number of Jubilee South representatives from the regions will be
participating in and to which a number of groups from the North have been
invited.
Thus, we would like to invite you to join us in a South-North Consultation in
Dakar, Senegal on December 15 and 16. Please reserve these dates in your
diaries as your participation will be vital in charting a way forward for our
movement!
A formal letter of invitation from the convening committee will be issued
shortly and will contain details of the programme as well as details
regarding conference venue, travel and accommodation arrangements.
