I need to know the list of countries that were identified by the Jubilee 2000 campaign as requiring immediate debt cancellation for a study I am doing on World Bank-IMF poverty reduction strategies. I appreciate any help I can get on this. Thanks.
Dear Nil,
try the following reports / links:
Horst Köhler, James D. Wolfensohn (2000): Debt relieft for the porest countries. Milstone achieved. Joint Statement. (The pdf-file contains a list of 22 countries), see: https://www.imf.org/external/np/hipc/2000/state/state.htm
https://www.imf.org/external/np/hipc/2000/state/state.pdf
World Bank (2000): World Bank Group Historical Chronology 2000, World Bank Events. (If you read all the events and check the "Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) Initiative" news, you will find the same list of 22 countries as above), see: http://go.worldbank.org/O76D3W7SW0
Wolrd Bank (2000): Press Briefing on Debt Relief Ahead of the G-8 Okinawa Summit. Proceedings. (There are 40 and 12 countries (sum = 52) mentioned by Mr. Gaeta, but only "18 countries were in the pipeline"), see: http://go.worldbank.org/RBE3OSFQ00
World Bank (2000): Debt forgiveness or reduction. (Download as Excel-file possible; there is also a list of the countries, which have got debt forgiveness or reduction actually). see: http://search.worldbank.org/quickview?view_url=http%3A%2F%2Fdatabanksearch.worldbank.org%2FDataSearch%2FLoadReport.aspx%3Fdb%3D2%26cntrycode%3D%26sercode%3DDT.DFR.DPPG.CD%26yrcode%3DYR2000
