The HIPC Initiative is a comprehensive approach to debt reduction for heavily indebted poor countries pursuing International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank-supported structural adjustment and reform programmes. To date, debt-reduction packages have been approved for 27 countries, 23 of them in Africa, providing $51 billion in debt service relief. Documents about the HIPC Debt Initiative are available from the IMF website.
