Tax Justice Network (TJN)
The Tax Justice Network (TJN) believes that tax and financial systems are the most powerful tools for creating a just society that gives equal weight to the needs of everyone. But under pressure from corporate giants and the super-rich, governments have programmed these systems to prioritise the wealthiest over everybody else, wiring financial secrecy and tax havens into the core of our global economy. This fuels inequality fosters corruption and undermines democracy. TJN works to repair these injustices by inspiring and equipping people and governments to reprogramme their tax and financial systems.
