IS YOUR PENSION CRIPPLING POOR COUNTRIES?

The World Bank Boycott Campaign asks people not to invest in World Bank Bonds, which they may be doing without knowing, through their pension funds or savings accounts. The World Bank gives loans to developing nations for certain projects which are causing major environmental damage, as well as crippling these countries with huge debt payments which they cannot afford.

In Zambia, where 20% of the population is HIV positive, the government spends only $17 per person on health care, while spending $30 per person on debt payments.
