The sheer scale of the floods in Pakistan is staggering, and the country will need all its available resources to help it recover from this crippling crisis and to fight long-term poverty.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) - the institution that oversees debt repayments - can play a key role in this. Ensuring all of Pakistan's debt is frozen for 2 years would mean an extra $6 billion available to help those affected.

Please sign this petition today to tell the IMF to freeze Pakistan's debt.

Dear Dominique Strauss-Kahn,

Please help freeze Pakistan's debt to ensure the country's poorest people are able to recover from the devastating floods.
