- 2) ‘Debt jubilees’: What causes positive changes to happen
- 3) ‘Hoarding wealth’: How inequality causes financial crises
- 4) ‘Tax injustice’: How rich people are made poor
- 5) ‘Breaking the mould’: Gender inequality

Debt Justice is an organisation of all faiths and none, but takes inspiration from the ancient and biblical concept of jubilee, a time when debts were cancelled, slaves set free, land was redistributed and fields left fallow.
