dc.descriptionThis report is a synthesis of findings, conclusions, recommendations and lessons learnt from the evaluation of the CCJP/JCTR debt project. The evaluation was commissioned on 2nd September, 2002 and carried out by Fredrick Mutesa of the department of Development Studies at the University of Zambia.en
dc.description.abstractThe CCJP/JCTR debt project was established in 1998 with the purpose of securing an ethical outcome to Zambia’s external debt problem, viewed as a burden on the people by the project holders. The main purpose of the evaluation was to examine the implementation and performance of the debt project. The evaluation covers the period from October 1998 to December 2001. It was revealed that on average, Zambia spent nearly 20% of its GDP on debt service payments between 1990 and 2000, while on the other hand, education and health sectors received 3% and 2%, respectively. It was in this light that the external debt was seen to impose a burden on the people of Zambia. The evaluation, however, noted that the project, while remaining committed to the goal of total debt cancellation, was flexible enough to support initiatives aimed at debt reduction. It was also revealed that the project was designed to fall under the auspices of the Catholic Commission for Justice and Peace and operationalised through the office of the Jesuit Centre for Theological Reflection. The evaluation found that there was some ambiguity over the relationship between the Debt Project and Jubilee-Zambia.
