High Level Dialogue on Taxation and the Recommendations of the Extraordinary Committee of Independent Experts on Inequality.

The South African Tax Working Group, invites you to join the High Level Dialogue on Taxation and the Recommendations of the Extraordinary Committee of Independent Experts on Inequality. The dialogue will be held on the sidelines of the G20 Social Summit.

The dialogue will bring together different stakeholders, such as policymakers, CSOs, and engage in conversation with some of the recommendations by the Extraordinary panel members on Inequality. We believe that your expertise in fiscal policy, inequality and the international financial architecture can help participants contextualise the G20 and whether it can serve as a vehicle for a progressive tax system.
