Resolving the Third World Debt Crisis

A Crucial Challenge for Ecojustice

Abstract

Let me begin by saying how delighted I was to be invited to this beautiful city of Adelaide to take part in this consultation on religion and the environment sponsored by the Charles Strong Trust and the Adelaide College of Divinity. The range of topics and the competence of the various speakers guarantees us all an exciting and most informative weekend. The topic which I will address tonight, ‘The Third World Debt Crisis: A Challenge for Ecojustice’, has been central to my life and ministry for the past 20 years.
