Tax Justice Network - Africa brings together more than 30 civil society groups from across 16 African countries to promote socially just taxation systems and represent African perspectives in international tax reform discussions. This grant will enable the network to advocate for progressive and pro-poor tax policies; it will also support a campaign to reduce or eliminate illicit financial flows from Africa. The network will strengthen the capacity of national tax coalitions and enlist the support of media and trade unions to promote responsible tax practices in the region.

Grants to this Grantee
for support of Nawi’s thinking hub on social reproduction and care economies in Africa
Nawi – Afrifem Macroeconomics Collective and the Makerere Institute of Social Research (MISR) are co-creating a thinking hub to develop an African feminist theory and narrative of the care economy. The knowledge produced through the hub will contribute to broader decolonized theorizations on social reproduction from an African and Global South vantage point. This grant to Tax Justice Network Africa, which serves as the fiscal host for Nawi, will establish the thinking hub and enable Nawi and MISR to invest in institutional strengthening.
