Event description
This event will begin with the online launch of the State of Tax Justice 2023 report, including global and country-level estimates of the scale of cross-border tax abuse by multinationals and by individuals with undeclared offshore wealth. This will provide the context to assess the critical ongoing, intergovernmental discussions on the potential for a framework for international tax cooperation under UN auspices – the costs of tax abuse are the potential benefits from a comprehensive UN solution.
Following this event, the stream will switch to a hybrid event hosted in Cartagena, Colombia, which will be the opening session of the civil society days of the first Latin American and Caribbean summit on ‘inclusive, sustainable, and equitable global taxation’. This major event, jointly led by Colombia, Chile and Brazil, represents a significant step towards a common position on tax cooperation at the regional level, and to inform participants’ engagement in the UN intergovernmental discussions on a new international framework for tax.
