Economics from the South

Debt Solutions


Listen Later

Development economists Jayati Ghosh and Charles Abugre are back to explore the role of the global multilateral organisations in exacerbating the debt crisis. They take a forensic look at policies and mechanisms, including the flawed G20-led Common Framework and the IMF debt sustainability analysis. And they offer up pragmatic solutions that will help break the endless cycle of debt.

And we hear from a chicken farmer about running her small business in the economic turmoil of debt-distressed Zambia.

From the International Development Economics Associates - a network of progressive economists who centre the perspectives and needs of the Global South.
