| dc.description.abstract | As we approach the end of the year 2000, there is much discussion about the state of Zambia's economy. The Jesuit Centre for Theological Reflection (JCTR) notes that a key topic of discussion is the significance of Zambia's. qualification for debt relief under the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) initiative, especially as to how it will benefit the poor in the country. Another central focus of attention has been the dramatic depreciation of the Kwacha against major currencies such as the US dollar and the British Pound Sterling and the consequence of this for business stability. | en |
