IN FRAMES: International Tax Justice Campaigners Forum on U.N. Tax Convention

International tax justice campaigners across Asia and other regions across the globe met in Quezon City, Philippines on June 22, 2024 as they urged for a “strong UN Tax Convention,” saying it is “urgently needed to ‘rewrite’ global tax rules that have for so long worked against the interests of developing countries and marginalized sectors and communities.”

The event was organized by the Global Alliance for Tax Justice (GATJ) and the Tax and Fiscal Justice-Asia (TAFJA) in collaboration with the Asian Peoples’ Movement on Debt and Development (APMDD) and Rural Reconstruction Nepal (RRN), with the theme, “UN Tax Convention Now! Rewriting Global Tax Rules to Work for People and the Planet.”
