Have you already signed the Turn Debt Into Hope online petition? Wonderful. As we enter the final stretch of the Jubilee 2025 campaign, ORCIE is launching one final coordinated effort to translate broad public support into meaningful political action.
From Global Petition to Parliamentary Action
The Turn Debt Into Hope parliamentary paper petition is the next strategic phase of our debt justice work. Building on more than 60,000 public signatures gathered globally, this petition enables Members of Parliament to formally present the issue in the House of Commons—bringing the global debt crisis directly into federal political discourse.
From January to April 2026, our goal is to create sustained visibility by encouraging 10–15 MPs to table the petition throughout the session. Each presentation strengthens public pressure, elevates media attention, and signals to federal leaders that debt justice and climate finance remain urgent national priorities.
How You and Your Congregation Can Participate
If you—or your congregation—would like to support this effort by gathering signatures, approaching your local MP, or contributing to this coordinated four‑month advocacy push, we warmly welcome your involvement. ORCIE is ready to accompany and support you every step of the way.
