Winning the Tax Wars
Follow the event on Twitter #Tax4Dev
Developing countries face competitive pressures to lower tax rates and shrink their tax base. They must also fight against tax avoidance by multinational corporations and evasion schemes by the rich, as the Panama Papers demonstrated recently. These dynamics are damaging for developing countries, undermining their ability to build state capacity and, at times, leading to tax increases for the poor.
Can developing countries win these "tax wars" alone? What can we do to help them? Join us to discuss!
