Rule 1 of the global tax system is you tax multinational corporations where they SAY their profits are, not where they MAKE profit. Most countries backed flipping this 100-year-old rule in recent UN tax talks, to finally end the era of global tax abuse. taxjustice.net/press/un-inch…

🚨💸Multinationals get an avg 63% tax discount on IP-generated profits - like workers paying no income tax for 7 months. Patent box rules cost countries billions & fuel global profit shifting. Time for a pay-where-you-play taxation with a #UNTaxConvention. bit.ly/3KhmNaR

🏆BIG MOMENT🏆 in #UNtaxConvention talks! India reaffirmed a game-changing definition of illicit financial flows which INCLUDES tax abuse. This has been kept out of the definition for years, preventing countries from tackling the problem head on. No more! taxjustice.net/2025/11/14/il…

From colonial extraction to tax abuse by multinationals, the structures that entrenched inequality still shape who bears the cost of the climate crisis. Reparations, must do more than redress the past. They must reimagine the future - Ohene Yaw Ampofo-Anti bit.ly/4o26lJu

#COP30 is underway as countries debate how to fund real climate action. The question isn’t just what they commit to, but who pays. Meanwhile in Nairobi, talks on #UNTaxConvention may give nations the power to raise fair, reliable finance for #ClimateJustice & sustainable dev.
