Global Week Of Action (October 13–18) | Stop The Harm: Cancel The Debt, Reparations, And Just Transition Now!

As the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank hold their annual meetings this October, communities across the Global South continue to bear the weight of an economic system designed to keep them in crisis. From deepening debt to climate disasters, the people who did the least to cause the world’s problems are paying the highest price.

That’s why this Global Week of Action (October 13–18), under the banner Stop the Harm! Cancel the Debt! Reparations and Just Transition Now!, movements across the world are rising to demand an end to an unjust system — one that prioritizes profit over people and the planet.

We Condemn Violence Against Young People In Nigeria

,

We are extremely concerned about the serious situation in Nigeria after authorities imposed a curfew in Lagos, Africa's largest city, in response to the protests in the country. The majority of these are young protesters. The curfew has been followed by an unjustifiable escalation, especially the incident at Lekki Tollgate where people in military uniform attacked protesters with sharp ammunition. According to internal reports, the shooting took place during a coordinated power outage.
