A message Highlights offrom 2020 Covid-19 has exposed severe inequalities both between countries and within communities.

Vaccine inequality, ballooning debt and an unjust trade system will further exacerbate the deep divisions in the world, fuelling instability, poverty and climate change even more.

But there is another way.

our director

As disruptive and horrible as the pandemic is, we have to use it as a wake-up call – an opportunity to make the really big changes which were already needed before Covid-19 hit us, but which are now so much more obvious to so many more people.

We have turbulent times ahead of us.

But acting collectively is the best chance we have of ensuring things get better rather than worse. Thanks to you, we’ve made an incredible start.

Your support gives us the independence and agility to quickly take on issues where real change is possible. And it means we can tell it like it is, calling for the big changes we desperately need.

By putting important issues on the agenda early and loudly, we encourage others to speak out. We make it easier for others to be radical.

But it’s not just about the financial support you give us. Our campaign victories are a product of your activism.

Together with you we have championed a fairer model for producing vaccines and medicines. We’ve helped bring this issue to the heart of global public debate – and we’re expecting a real change.

We were at the centre of campaigning against the US trade deal which is now on the backburner thanks in part to our work. We’ve joined allies to fight against the mounds of unpayable debt which threaten a generation of impoverishment in countries across the world. And we’ve continued to challenge UK aid spending when it puts finance and endless growth ahead of the needs of people and planet – winning a partial victory when the government announced an end to public support of fossil fuels.

We couldn’t have done it without you.

Together, we can continue to build the world we so desperately need.

Our campaigning ensured pharmaceutical companies and the UK government had to answer to the public and international press on how everyone everywhere should have access to a Covid -19 vaccine.

Suspending patents on the vaccines is now an issue the world is talking about.

Our campaigning contributed to the Prime Minister announcing in December that the UK would stop using public funds to finance fossil fuel projects overseas.

We showed that rich countries had hoarded enough vaccines to vaccinate their populations almost three times over, while nine out of ten people in the poorest countries were set to miss out. As part of the global People’s Vaccine alliance, we launched these stats in early December and got widespread media coverage across the world.

We published research and worked with MPs to build public awareness of how CDC Group, the UK government’s development bank, is using aid to fund private healthcare and exacerbate inequalities.

Highlights of 2020

We helped stop a toxic US trade deal being signed under Trump and made it a mainstream issue.

Over 120,000 people signed our petition against the deal.

We helped to get $12 billion of debt suspended by the G20, and produced research, resources and a supporter toolkit to push for debt cancellation which has become even more vital in the pandemic.

We helped to save parliament’s aid scrutiny committee despite the Department for International Development (DfID) being merged with the Foreign Office.

Fighting for vaccine equality With the outbreak of covid-19 leading to a worldwide health crisis, we’ve put all our efforts into fighting for equitable access to vaccines globally. While achieving this is vital in itself, it’s also a chance to spur wider change to the current pharmaceutical system – something we’ve been campaigning for together since 2016.

Thank you for all you’ve done this past year to help campaign so everyone everywhere has access to a Covid -19 vaccine. As news about vaccine developments emerged during the first half of 2020, thousands of us joined the call for the government to make all Covid -19 vaccines affordable to all countries and since then Global Justice Now supporters have been keeping the pressure on Big Pharma and parliamentarians.

In response to the announcements of effective Covid-19 vaccines we were amongst the first to highlight the stark inequality in access to vaccines between rich and lower income countries. Our media reactions were widely picked up and even featured in the opening speech by the South African officials at the World Trade Organisation (WTO). Our later research with the global People’s Vaccine alliance found that rich countries had pre-ordered enough doses to vaccinate their entire populations almost three times over while nine out of ten people in the poorest countries were set to miss out. Our findings were covered in broadcast media and papers across the world.

Jess Hurd/Global Justice Now

Rich countries like the UK are now making rapid progress with their vaccine rollout, but many low-income countries are yet to give a single dose. This is a result of our global trade system putting the profit of Big Pharma ahead of the health needs of people.

14/05/2021 20:10:17

From the start we’ve been playing a leading role in the People’s Vaccine alliance, a global coalition to challenge patent laws, the secrecy of technology and know-how and the hoarding of vaccines by rich countries. We spearheaded the coalition’s ‘Global Day of Action’ and mobilised supporters from across the world to phone Moderna, Pfizer, and AstraZeneca to call on the companies to join the World Health Organisation’s global pool for sharing knowledge and intellectual property.

To further expose the failings of the pharmaceutical industry we published The Horrible History of Big Pharma, a report showing Big Pharma’s long track record of putting profit before people and how therefore the industry can’t be left in the driving seat of the global Covid -19 response.

At the same time, we built cross-party political pressure on the government to stop blocking the suspension of patents for Covid-19 vaccines at the WTO. We coordinated an open letter from 100 UK parliamentarians in support of the proposal and worked with our allies to brief MPs to speak in a parliamentary debate which won support from politicians across all opposition parties.

Heidi’s personal highlight:

Mobilising thousands of people across the world, including the UK, Spain and South Africa, to phone and email AstraZeneca, Moderna and Pfizer with one message calling on them to lift their patents and share their vaccine blueprints with the World Health Organisation.

2021 and beyond To mark the first anniversary of the pandemic in March this year, together with the People’s Vaccine alliance, we mobilised organisations and activists across to the world to demand an end to vaccine apartheid. #PeoplesVaccine was trending on social media as activists staged protests across the world.

We held a global online rally with speakers from across the world including the executive director of UNAIDS Winnie Byanyima and Bernie Sanders.

The WTO will continue to discuss the temporary suspension of patents on vaccines over the coming months. And in June, the UK will host the G7, a meeting of powerful countries in Cornwall. Both will provide further chances for us to build up the pressure on our government.

Freedom of movement Why we need open borders The restrictions on freedom of movement introduced during the pandemic have given many of us in the UK a tiny insight into what it must be like to face ongoing separation from your family and friends – not temporarily to try and stop a deadly disease, but permanently, because of the unfairness of our deadly border system.

That’s why, on International Migrants Day in December last year, Global Justice Now released a new pamphlet: Freedom of Movement: Why we need open borders, summarising the case for global free movement as a long term demand in the fight for global justice. It cannot be right that the place you are born dictates whether you will live a life of poverty or plenty, of freedom or imprisonment. Nor can it be right that while the richest, at least in normal times, move around with ease, the poorest are imprisoned in geographical poverty.

When we bear in mind that many of those seeking a better life are leaving behind poverty and conflict that Britain and other rich countries have fuelled through arms sales, toxic trade deals, dodgy debts, land grabs and climate change, the situation becomes even more shameful. Freedom of Movement is our small contribution to injecting hope and energy into a debate which often sees those championing migrants rights pushed onto the back foot. It is only by freeing our imaginations that we can begin to really see how things could be otherwise. The pandemic has shown us that more than ever.

Trade justice for people and the environment Despite the pandemic, the British government pushed ahead with negotiating toxic trade deals, the most risky being a deal with the US, which threatened to fuel deregulation of standards, block climate action and hand more power to Big Pharma.

When formal negotiations began in May last year, we were ready to expose the dangerous corporate agenda behind this deal. We highlighted its threats through extensive media coverage, published a book, gave evidence to parliamentary committees and mobilised the public to take action at every round of negotiations, culminating in a day of action across the country. Thanks to the support from people like you, the public outcry and opposition was huge, making it impossible for a deal to be rushed through.

10 GJN 2020 Impact report PRINT.indd 10

14/05/2021 20:10:21

At the same time, our fight for parliament to have a meaningful say over trade deals continued.

While we didn’t succeed in ensuring that MPs would get a vote on trade deals, there is now wide recognition that it will be increasingly hard to ignore calls for more scrutiny in future. We did have a partial win in a court ruling on the government’s excessive secrecy in trade talks, bringing together evidence from academics, trade negotiators and even a former civil servant, with the government being ordered to release agendas and schedules of meetings – but the case continues.

For several years we’ve been calling for an end to corporate courts written into trade and investment deals, but the Covid-19 crisis posed a new threat – a wave of corporate court cases arriving from the pandemic itself. City law firms and big business have been speculating about bringing corporate court cases over the actions that governments have taken to save lives and jobs during the pandemic. We coordinated a global letter signed by 630 organisations from over 90 countries calling for corporate courts to be suspended and we saw the call for a moratorium on corporate courts taken up by UN organisations.

Jean’s personal highlight:

Seeing so many supporters and activists willingly adapt to meeting and taking action virtually. We were socially distanced but still able to take action together. In webinars, zoom meetings, online assemblies and virtual rallies, we have stayed a connected movement.

2021 and beyond Our work during 2020 helped bring the inequities of trade rules into the mainstream and lay strong foundations for a movement equipped to fight for a transformation of UK trade policy. This year, we’ll continue to push for a different trade system that can create a more sustainable and equal international economy.

As the UK prepares to host the UN climate conference, we’ll campaign to expose the risk corporate courts pose for our climate. We are already seeing cases used, for instance over the phaseout of coal-fired power stations in the Netherlands, and we cannot allow this unjust mechanism to block action to tackle the climate crisis. Including corporate courts in new trade deals that the UK is trying to do could set them in stone for the future – like in the trade deal with Canada and the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Meanwhile existing bad corporate court deals, like the Energy Charter Treaty, are rearing their heads.

Exposing Global Britain:

Fighting for better aid spending

The government’s actions in 2020 showed how vital our aid campaigning is, and how important you, Global Justice Now supporters, are to our chances of maintaining scrutiny on aid spending and holding MPs to account.

Despite the global pandemic threatening to push 150 million into extreme poverty, the government continued its sustained attack on aid. This year the government merged the Department for International Development with the Foreign Office, announced plans to reduce the aid budget and attempted to close down parliament’s International Development Committee (IDC).

12 GJN 2020 Impact report PRINT.indd 12

14/05/2021 20:10:24

Alongside these attempts to reduce aid spending and scrutiny, the government continued its strategy of diverting aid to the private sector – including many unaffordable, for-profit corporate hospitals.

But we fought back: exposing bad aid spending while promoting a progressive vision for what aid could achieve. In January we protested against the UK-Africa Investment summit. And despite the lockdown throughout the year Global Justice Now supporters took action by signing petitions and writing to their MPs, and across the country local groups organised talks on aid to increase awareness. We successfully stopped the closure of the IDC and we won a campaign to stop aid funding being used to support fossil fuels.

Many of you donated to these campaigns, making everything possible. Your support contributed to research and briefing papers over the year, to our work with allies to co-ordinate lobbying, amplify each other’s work, sign joint letters and build pressure on government ministers and civil servants. We received excellent media coverage in the Guardian and Times of our work, and wrote a series of media commentary pieces building public awareness about the challenges facing UK aid.

All this work has resulted in increasing criticism by the public and MPs of how the government is misusing aid and why it should not be using aid to privatise public services or push the UK’s own economic interests.

Dan’s personal highlight:

When, in the space of a single week in December, we found out that our campaigning had made a big difference with two big wins: the preservation of the IDC and a partial end to the use of UK aid to fund fossil fuels.

Daniel Willis, campaigner, global finance

2021 and beyond At the start of this year we published research on health privatisation. This research received good feedback from allies, and was featured in two stories in the Times, helping to inform the debate on aid. In February our supporters responded to a government consultation arguing that they should immediately stop using aid to finance fossil fuel projects. This response was noted by the government and in March they confirmed they would stop.

Navendu Mishra MP used our research on aid and utilities privatisation to give a speech on World Water Day in March.

We will continue to campaign to hold the government to account. Our next steps will be to hold a major public meeting on Reimagining Aid to build further awareness of the problems with aid spending. We will also work with allies to oppose cuts to the 0.7% aid budget, continue working to have exceptions to the fossil fuel funding ban removed and build stronger relationships in parliament with sector allies.

Climate justice Fighting for our future From trade and investment deals, to systems of debt and development, and unchecked corporate power, the climate emergency is shaped by the injustices of our global economic system. Together, we’ve been working to expose the damaging role that governments and corporations play in fuelling the climate crisis.

At the end of last year, we celebrated a victory when the government announced that the UK would stop using public funds to finance fossil fuel projects overseas. This was a huge win and great news for the frontline communities and all of us who took action.

Together with our coalition partners we had lobbied MPs, shared findings from our research in the media and handed in 71,000 signatures calling for an end to fossil fuel finance. Thank you for supporting this campaign.

We are in the coordinating committee of the COP26 Coalition preparing civil society mobilisations ahead of the climate talks set to be held in Glasgow this November. We have been helping in the coalition’s political strategy and education work and international outreach to climate justice movements worldwide. We spoke in numerous public online events and internal capacity-building activities of the group. We co-organised events in the last two ‘From the Ground Up’ global gatherings held in November and April. The first FTGU, held at the time that COP26 would have been due to happen, was joined by over 8,000 UK-based and international participants wherein we held several sessions from trade to green extractivism, to fossil fuel finance.

Dorothy’s personal highlight:

We are rising to the huge challenges posed by this most critical decade for climate justice. We have a huge task in exposing the failures of the UK government to shift from fossil fuels while claiming global leadership on climate change.

Dorothy Guerrero, head of policy and campaigns

2021 and beyond Following the announcement to end overseas fossil fuel support at the end of last year, the government launched a consultation on the timeframe for the implementation. Thousands of you took our online action to respond to the consultation and the government received over 42,000 responses with the majority asking for an immediate implementation from March this year. This is likely to end the possibility of UK Export Finance offering support to the gigantic East Africa Crude Oil Pipeline or a major oil project in Brazil, but the new policy will not apply directly to the UK’s development bank CDC Group. CDC has already launched its own fossil fuel policy that says it will continue to invest in gas power. We will be working with allies to ask questions in parliament, write letters to ministers and take action to end fossil fuel finance once and for all.

In January we supported South Lakes Action on Climate Change (SLACC) in putting pressure on the communities secretary, Robert Jenrick, asking him to ‘call in’ Cumbria County Council’s decision to give the go ahead to the planned coal mine. After much pressure, including from activists taking our action, there will now be a public inquiry.

Much more needs to be done ahead of COP26 to support climate justice. As part of the COP26 Coalition, we’ll continue to play a leading role in the civil society mobilisation and ensure that the voices of those most affected by the climate emergency are heard at the summit. We will also be launching a new campaign against the shady corporate courts than can be used to block climate action, and using our platform to amplify the voices of activists and frontline communities from the global south in the climate debate.

Together against A broken debt system The current global debt system is deeply flawed.

It encourages high rates of borrowing by governments, then forces the burden of debt onto the shoulders of citizens.

This has become even more clear during the Covid pandemic; middle- and low-income countries are still expected to repay extortionate amounts to some of the world’s richest banks while their governments struggle to put sufficient funds towards public services such as healthcare.

Global Justice Now has a long history of campaigning for debt cancellation for the global south.

16 GJN 2020 Impact report PRINT.indd 16

14/05/2021 20:10:33

But now more than ever we have to let large private creditors know that we’re watching. That’s why, in 2020 we began work with allies to relaunch the UK debt coalition.

As the pandemic raged, we stepped up our campaigning and in April the G20 agreed to some debt suspension and further extended the suspension in October.

This success was only possible because we all – allies as well as campaigners and supporters – came together to support debt cancellation.

Ahead of the G20 meetings thousands of us contacted our MPs and the UK chancellor to demand they take action, with our activists

helping organise targeted MP lobbies around the country in the autumn.

Whether it was signing an online petition or attending a meeting with an MP, together we worked hard to push debt up the political agenda and it has begun to pay off.

Later in the year, we joined hundreds of other organisations and campaigners to participate in the Global Week of Action for Debt Cancellation. One of the highlights of this week was an open letter addressed to all governments, international institutions and lenders ensuring they appreciate the urgent need for debt cancellation, and the public appetite for it.

Dan’s personal highlight:

Our members and local groups playing an important role in organising debt lobbies with their MPs. Several groups acted as local co-ordinating hubs, encouraging local contacts to take part in a conversation on the need for debt cancellation with their MPs. Daniel Willis, campaigner, global finance

2021 and beyond Thanks to the relentless campaigning efforts of our supporters and activists, this March the UK government signalled that it was aware of the issues surrounding private creditors and accepted that more should be done under the UK’s G7 Presidency to ensure their participation in debt restructuring.

As our work in 2020 has helped us build a solid foundation of alliances and movements across the globe, this year we are ready to focus our attention on the role of private creditors, namely Blackrock, HSBC, JP Morgan and UBS. We have already launched a joint action that has received tens of thousands of signatures.

We’ll also continue to push debt cancellation into the media spotlight ahead of the upcoming G7 and G20 meetings to build enough public pressure so we can finally make this crisis a turning point in the fight for a fairer debt system.

Our activist network We had planned to mark our 50th anniversary year with a big activist conference. Instead we ended up ushering in perhaps a more significant change in how our activism happens than we’ve seen in those previous 50 years.

As the coronavirus pandemic hit in March, we replaced our planned conference with a series of online talks discussing our key campaign issues in the new context. Hundreds of people joined these ‘webinars’ and thanks to the online format we were able to ensure every one had a speaker from the global south.

18 GJN 2020 Impact report PRINT.indd 18

14/05/2021 20:10:39

Our local groups then started shifting their own meetings online too, and while some of their regular activities, such as campaign stalls, were not possible, MP lobbying and speaker events all started to take place online. By June we were holding a national online Trade Activists’ Assembly which attracted 120 people, and was followed up in October with a day of action against the US-UK trade deal. As well as socially-distanced protests around the country, we attracted over 500 people to an online rally against the deal.

A new generation In February we organised an event in London for our youth network. Freedom of Movement was focused on the politics of migrant rights, but featured live music as well as workshops. It was followed up, post-lockdown in May, by a fundraiser for the Calais Food Collective organised by the London youth network group, Our Future Now. After a lull during the first lockdown, by the autumn we were seeing the beginning of the largest, most sustained period of interest in our youth network since it was launched in 2017. Despite a lack of university freshers’ fairs or other physical spaces to engage students and young people in, we were able to refound groups which had foundered and start a number of new ones by the end of the year. This has continued into 2021, giving us at least 12 youth network groups at the time of writing.

2021 and beyond Our groups across the country are now gearing up for a summer of campaigning and agitation for a People’s Vaccine.

Despite ongoing uncertainty over the timing, we’ll also be mobilising people to demand climate justice as the UN climate talks are coming to Glasgow. To ensure we maintain the recent growth of our youth network, we’ll focus on supporting this as much as we can over the coming months.

Youth network groups have organised workshops, reading groups and online film screenings in 2020, and have started to work together across the country to co-ordinate actions. In some ways, this has been easier because of the fact everything has had to happen through online calls, though we’re undoubtedly now ready for a period of being able to meet in person!

The Scottish angle Our work in Scotland in 2020 covered the breadth of our campaigns – but particularly trade justice and equitable access to Covid-19 vaccines. For each of those, our staff and local activists looked for the Scottish specific angle, and in particular the place where they could harness the political differences between the nations of the UK to make the most impact on our campaigns.

Several years of focused campaigning and lobbying of politicians with the Trade Justice Scotland coalition (which we founded back in 2015 to fight the US-EU trade deal TTIP) resulted in the Scottish government taking on board our calls for a trade system based on a set of values.

This became clear when they published their paper: ‘Scotland’s Vision for Trade’, based on five 20 GJN 2020 Impact report PRINT.indd 20

14/05/2021 20:10:43

values: wellbeing, sustainability, good governance, inclusive growth and net zero climate change emissions.

amplifying our demands for a people’s vaccine in its campaign and lobbying work across the second half of the year.

Our call for the UK government to stop opposing the suspension of patents on Covid -19 vaccines at the World Trade Organisation (WTO) was supported in the Scottish parliament by almost one third of all MSPs, who signed an open letter which was then covered in the Scottish media.

We were an early member of a new, very broad-based coalition in Scotland – the Just Green Recovery coalition – resulting in that coalition taking up and

Our network of activists in Scotland continued to be active, with stunts on the US-UK trade deal day of action happening from Kintyre to St Andrews, and almost half of the MPs who supported Caroline Lucas MP’s EDM on lifting patents on Covid-19 vaccines being representatives of Scottish constituencies.

Youth activism also took root in Scotland in 2020, with two new groups in Stirling and Glasgow.

Liz’s personal highlight:

A highly experienced and dedicated network of local activists, as well as successful coalition working, means that we can punch above our weight in Scotland – and we’re proud to have earned the reputation as the ‘go to’ organisation on trade.

Liz Murray, head of Scottish campaigns

2021 and beyond Our awareness raising in 2020 on suspending patents for Covid-19 vaccines at the WTO resulted in two MSPs putting down motions at Holyrood backing our campaign, which gained support from additional MSPs who hadn’t previously engaged with the issue.

We were invited to speak at a Scottish government high level roundtable on ‘Scotland’s Vision for Trade’ where we were able to make suggestions for improvements. Leading up to Holyrood elections, we gave policy suggestions to the political parties on our campaign areas of aid, trade, climate, debt and pharma.

We are also encouraging local activists to ask the MSP candidates questions relating to these campaign areas.

With COP26 planned for Glasgow in November, we started the year by putting pressure on the Scottish government to embed climate justice into its climate change action plan and to increase the amount of money in its climate justice fund. A step towards succeeding on this came when they subsequently announced plans to review the climate justice fund.

Thank you When the pandemic was declared in spring last year, like organisations everywhere we had to change the way we work within days, as well as assess the likely effect of this crisis on what we do. Naturally we were worried about our ability to continue to campaign with the same impact but also about asking for donations which are so vital to enable our work.

Now, looking back at our campaigning during 2020, I’m amazed by the scale of what we have achieved together despite these challenging circumstances and I’m proud to be part of an organisation with such incredible supporters.
