TAX HAVENS CAUSE POVERTY
Not only does the Tax Justice Network know as much about tax havens, dodges, avoidance and evasion as PriceWaterhouse, KPMG, Deloitte and Ernst & Young combined! they use their expertise for the benefit of the 99 percent and show how we can claw back the stolen billions and use the money for the common good.
Susan George, The Transnational Institute
TJN was instrumental not only in promoting policy issues pertaining to global tax dodging and exposing its impact on government revenue and public service provision worldwide and development finance in developing countries. It was also equally instrumental in encouraging, and giving policy and institutional support to civil society organisations in the South to engage with the issues and join the tax justice movement to raise their voice and get involved in the struggle against tax dodging and illicit financial flows. Tax Justice Network ? Africa and other tax justice networks in the South owe a lot to this initial support.
Dereje Alemayehu, Global Alliance for Tax Justice
TJN has done more than any other organisation to put fiscal justice at the center of the policy agenda. Tax issues should not be left to those who want to escape taxes! Changes will come when more and more citizens of the world take ownership of these matters. TJN is a powerful force acting in this direction.

We are an independent international network launched in 2003. We conduct high-level research, analysis and advocacy on international tax; on the international aspects of financial regulation; on the role of tax in society; and on the impacts of tax evasion, tax avoidance, tax ‘competition’ and tax havens. We seek to create understanding and debate, and to promote reform, especially in poorer countries. We are not aligned to any political party.
