Work for Africa
The 11 th PAC is a follow up from the 10 th Pan-African Conference on Illicit Financial Flows and Taxation that was held in Lusaka, Zambia under the theme ‘Tax Justice Amid Multiple Crises.’
The meeting was attended by 300 delegates from 21 countries and at the end of the conference, delegates made several commitments including a call for greater reforms of the global financial architecture, including through the establishment of a UN Tax Convention and a UN tax body to lead in global tax reforms to provide an inclusive and equitable participation of all countries.
This year’s event will be held by The African Union Commission (AUC), the Tax Justice Network Africa (TJNA), the African Tax Administration Forum (ATAF) from 22 to 24 November 2023 in Accra, Ghana.
The 2023 PAC will, therefore, explore the role that African countries have played and ought to play in international conversations that are beginning to have implications on African efforts to engage in domestic resource mobilisation and curb illicit financial flows from the Continent. Against this background, the theme of the 2023 PAC is Making Global Tax Governance Work for Africa. And in the spirit and tradition of the PAC, TJNA and ATAF will collaborate with other organisations to deliver a successful 11th PAC.
