South Asia Tax and Fiscal Justice Alliance-SATaFJA

We call for a #UNTaxConvention to #MakeMNCsPay their share, ensure equitable allocation of taxing rights across countries, and enable the Global South to raise revenues required to address inequalities and the climate emergency #FfD4People

Rich countries are attempting to sabotage sovereign debt reform. We urge the negotiators of #G77 governments to stand united and fight for a just outcome document at #FFD4.

#UN Keep ambition high! The Global South is drowning in debt. High time to break free from a system that puts profits over people. #DebtJustice #FfD4 #UNDebtConvention #GOP #PakistanPolitics #GovtofNepal

Government College University @gcuniversitylhr, SAAPE, @KissanRabita & @OxfamInAsia jointly organized a public event in Lahore today. It featured the launching of @mustafa_talpur's book 'Implications of COVID-19 on Economic inequality' & SAAPE's South Asia Wealth Tax report.

Wealth taxes can be designed to limit the growth of wealth inequality, or if desired, reverse it. Thereby, they can prevent concentrations of wealth (and power) at the top of society, which are proven to undermine democracy and stability. #TaxTheRich #SurvivalOfTheRichest

The richest 1% of Indians held over 40% of the country's wealth in 2021 while the poorest 50% owned only 3%. Meanwhile 64% of the GST is contributed by the poorest 50%. Raising the wealth tax is crucial to reduce economic inequalities. #SurvivalofTheRichest #FightInequality

The 2023 @Oxfam Report #SurvivalOfTheRichest has given us more depth as to why we need to #TaxTheRich and Tax them NOW! bit.ly/3GPxH1E #TaxTheRich #FightInequality #Davos #WEF23 @saape_network @SQMasood @FightInequality

Reasons to #TaxTheRich: (a) directly reduce income/wealth inequality, and (b) generate revenue for governments to spend on policies that reduce inequality and promote more equitable, sustainable societies. #FightInequality #SurvivalOfTheRichest

Inequality & Poverty in India Highest No. of Poor in the World are in India. Wealth Inequality stripped 70% Indians from basic necessity like a Healthy Diet. GLOBAL PROTEST - DEMANDS A WEALTH TAX SO EVERYONE CAN ENJOY THEIR HUMAN RIGHTS. #SurvivalofTheRichest #FightInequality
