10:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m: New Framework for global taxation trends
The primary objective of this high-level event is to explore the crucial role that taxation plays in financing sustainable development, and to move from declaration to action. By bringing together high-level representatives from different countries and civil society, the special event will provide a platform to engage in a comprehensive dialogue on enhancing tax systems, curbing tax avoidance, and fostering a fairer global tax architecture. The discussions will aim to identify actionable commitments, especially on international corporate taxation and HNWI that can drive progress towards the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
