What does a toxic relationship look like when the “partners” are climate vulnerability and debt?

For many climate-vulnerable countries, climate disasters create urgent financing needs. But borrowing can come with high interest, long-term repayments and pressure to prioritise debt servicing over public investment.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗲: climate shocks increase financing needs; debt repayments reduce fiscal space; and countries have less capacity to prepare for the next crisis.

This relationship needs to end. 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗯𝘁. 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱 #𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

🚩 RED FLAG or 💚 GREEN FLAG
When it comes to climate and debt, can you spot the difference?

Swipe through, make your picks and see how debt, climate finance and climate justice are more connected than you might think.

Countries hit hardest by the climate crisis are facing the same vicious cycle and serious debt pressures such as high borrowing costs, high debt repayments and pressure to cut public spending, just when they need more money to respond to the climate crisis.

The problem isn't that all these countries got it wrong... It's the rules need changing.

Debt is a major, but 𝙛𝙞𝙭𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚, barrier to climate action. 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝗯𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲!

Right now, somewhere in the world, democracy and human rights are being defended by non-violent action. In recent years, Gen Z movements have held a Bangladeshi prime minister to account, caused the collapse of a corrupt governing coalition in Nepal, forced Kenya's president to scrap his own tax bill, and prompted Sri Lanka's head of state, who bankrupted his own country, to leave. Anyone claiming street protest is dead clearly hasn’t been paying attention.

Yet one statistic should keep every political observer awake. From 1980 to 1999, nonviolent mass campaigns succeeded 65 percent of the time. Since 2010, that rate has fallen below 34 percent, according to political scientist Erica Chenoweth.

The most connected and adaptable generation of protesters is winning less than half as often as their parents did with just landlines and fax machines. The problem is not courage, numbers, or memes. It is what happens after the crowd departs.

At MOVE (The Global Social Movement Center), we work directly with non-violent youth movements to protect human rights and democracy together. These are our shared lessons about the role of social movements and how they turn public pressure into political influence.

If dozens of countries face similar debt pressures despite having very different economies and circumstances, we should ask some serious questions. Are individual countries really making bad choices?

93.5% of the most climate-vulnerable countries are in debt crisis or at significant risk of debt distress. Meanwhile, the institutions governing global finance were largely designed decades ago, not taking into account the changes that have occured since, and with decision-making power distributed unevenly.
