| | Of Human Bondage |
 | | The debt reduction process will need to be based on the human needs of the countries, says Sachs, a plan that would include a timetable that takes into account social program efforts. |
 | | The process, says Sachs, should be one in which debtor countries, in cooperation with creditor countries, present blueprints for progress, and creditors signal concurrence by forgiveness of debt. |
 | | A key part of any such program, says Sachs, would be a commitment by HIPC countries that additional resources would be targeted for basic human needs, such as immunization coverage, improved mother-and-child care, HIV prevention, and efforts to increase primary school enrollment rates. |
