Jubilee
Debt Campaign UK are holding a special event at the Birmingham
International Convention Centre on Sunday 18th May to mark
the 10th anniversary of the human chain.
It will celebrate what the
Jubilee 2000 and MAKEPOVERTYHISTORY campaigns have achieved
on debt, and demand further action. A fast-moving presentation
will inform, inspire and energise young and old to pick up
the baton and take new steps on the journey to justice.
Jubilee Scotland will be taking part on the
day and would like to know if anyone from Scotland would like
to attend (especially if you took part in the human chain
in 1998). Depending on numbers we will be organising transport
down to Birmingham for the day, so
get in touch if you're interested.
The University of Birmingham is also holding
a conference on 16 and 17 May to support the city's celebration
of the 10th anniversary of Birmingham's G8 meeting in 1998.
