for assessing the data and evidence role in government policies toward fair tax systems in Africa
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 support a research partnership with the Institute for Economic Justice. The partners will explore whether and to what extent research has influenced (and could influence) government policies toward fair taxation in Africa, and inform advocacy strategies for civil society organizations and other stakeholders.
