Debt is one of the central issues facing Africa and its future development. In a year when the future of Africa is being discussed at a number of international meetings and as the Commission for Africa prepares to release its final report on the continent’s development challenges, this special issue of Pambazuka News focuses attention on the issue of debt and the impact it has had on generations of Africans.
