Unmasking 80 years of power, profit, and people’s resistance.

For 80 years, the World Bank and IMF have fueled displacement, inequality, fossil dependence, and authoritarian regimes—while claiming to fight poverty. The Balance Sheet exposes their legacy and sinister designs, and celebrates global resistance by adivasis, women, and marginalised communities who dared to challenge their exploitative development model.

A pop-up is always irritating. We know that.

However, continuing the work at CFA without your help, when the odds are against us, is tough.

If you can buy us a coffee (we appreciate a samosa with it!), that will help us continue the work.

Donate today. And encourage a friend to do the same. Thank you.
