The “debt of hunger” that devastates the South

We need to understand how debt captures wealth and dismantles food systems in the global South. Dependent on dollars to pay it off, states give in to extractivism and cut social spending. How can we build a large movement to overturn this form of colonialism?

É preciso compreender como a dívida captura riquezas e desmonta sistemas alimentares no Sul global. Dependentes de dólares para pagá-la, Estados cedem ao extrativismo e cortam gastos sociais. Como construir um grande movimento pela anulação desta forma de colonialismo?
