📢 At the UN Civil Society Conference in Nairobi, we joined global advocates to push back against corporate capture and promote a transformative #PactFortheFuture 🌍
Our ED Maria Ron Balsera highlighted the need for urgent #FiscalJustice at this ImPACT Coalition event ⬇️
🌍 Civil society stood united at #UNCSC2024
Together, we challenged corporate capture & advocated for transformative change to the world's financial architecture. Find out more ⬇️
#PactForTheFuture
Maria Ron Balsera Global Campaign for Education CESR Sylvain Aubry Sarah Jackson David Archer We cannot be talking of sustainable development and yet the global financial architecture is designed to benefit only the few. We need a global financial system that is inclusive and does not perpetuate poverty and colonialism.
The Global Tax Evasion Report 2024, which our EU Tax Observatory released last year, estimates that a minimum tax on global billionaires equal to 2% of their wealth would generate ~$250 billion per year in tax revenue
$250 billion, from less than 3,000 under-taxed individuals
Feminist organisations raise their concerns on t-shirts during the #2024UNCSC - as gender issues and care are largely missing from the zero draft, and the process has not allowed for true participation and risks furthering the corporate capture of the UN.
Clear message: #NotOurPact #TheFutureIsFeminist . The zero draft doesn't even mention #CARE 🤯 #2024UNSC We need a decolonial, green, feminist economy
De oca en oca, de una guarida fiscal a otra, el juego de 'apátridas fiscales' para pagar menos. Es urgente la apuesta del G20 Brasil y Gabriel Zucman en por un impuesto mínimo global a los ultrarricos de todo el planeta. #TaxTheRich ... pero ya!
The first substantial negotiating round of the #UNTaxConvention process ended last night. All countries reached a consensus agreement on a roadmap towards the next - and final - negotiating round, starting in July. Read our press release here: eurodad.org/un_tax_convent…
A packed room at #2024UNCSC to discuss 'Fostering Human Rights-Centered Economies'. A critical side-event taking up heads-on the systemic questions without which there's no possible #PactForTheFuture , and an approach that can bring together many countries on a meaningful agenda.
Maria Ron Balsera Sarah Jackson Sarah Saadoun iain byrne FIAN International GI-ESCR Riva Jalipa The event taclkes key issues undermining a possible common future: debt, growth, tax, development, climate finance, care, inequality...& how a human rights framework can help address those questions meaningfully & reasonably. Let's bring #humanrightseconomy into #PactForTheFuture
