Donor contributions to the tax and development agenda

Countries and organisations planned activities in the area of Tax and Development

Abstract

Countries and organisations reported on planned activities in the area of Tax and Development for the Addis Tax Initiative monitoring report. This report draws on this data with some supplementary sources.

The Addis Tax Initiative was initiated by the governments of Germany, the Netherlands, the UK and USA. The initiative was launched in the course of the 3rd Financing for Development Conference in Addis Ababa in 2015. It intends to generate substantially more resources for capacity building in the field of domestic revenue mobilisation / taxation as well as more ownership and commitment for the establishment of transparent, fair and efficient tax systems.

K4D helpdesk reports provide summaries of current research, evidence and lessons learned. This report was commissioned by the UK Department for International Development
