Inspired by the 2025 Jubilee Report commissioned by Pope Francis, the event features prominent economic and legal thinkers, including Martín Guzmán, Lee Buchheit, Anna Gelpern, and Robert Howse, who will discuss current issues with and needed reforms to the international financial architecture.The program consists of three panels, moving from the history of the sovereign debt crisis, to near-term improvements like legislation pending in the New York State Assembly, to movements for debt relief and climate justice.By bringing civil society voices together with legal scholars and practitioners, the conference will make the international public debt system legible to a broad audience of law students, attorneys and members of the general public – and uplift the Jubilee Report’s recommendations for how global finance can serve people more sustainably.Time: Tuesday, March 31st, 2026, 10:00 AM–6:00 PMPlace: Lipton Hall, D'Agostino Hall, NYU Law, 110 W. 3rd St., New York, NY 10011ProgramWelcome Keynote: Martín Guzmán, co-author of the Jubilee ReportTime: 10:30 AM–11:00 AMPanel I: How We Got Here (History &amp; Current Dilemmas)Time: 11:00 AM–12:30 PMExploring the historical and contemporary trajectory of the sovereign debt system and paths not taken, from the origins of contemporary sovereign finance to the current crises in the Global South.
