    Beskrivelse

    Financial speculation has spread at unprecedented levels across the globe in recent years. In Brazil, the expansion of the credit market has triggered a debt crisis, leading the government to launch a debt renegotiation programme targeting 32 million people. The United Nations has recognised the threat posed to human rights by escalating levels of indebtedness, and in Brazil and elsewhere, civil society organisations are urgently calling for action. Drawing on learning from Brazil, this workshop will ask how data on credit and the effects of indebtedness can be put to use, to widen awareness on financialisation, debt and its drivers in different contexts. We will discuss existing data and debates on financialisation, and explore prototypes for the design of impact tools and advocacy strategies for resistance to debt.
