The Taxcast

Tax Saves Lives


Listen Later

It's horrific that there are so many people across the world who still don't have access to 'survival rights.' Things like basic sanitation, clean water, quality education, decent healthcare so that mothers can survive childbirth - and so their children can even survive their childhood! This is where tax justice gets the most urgent, because tax literally saves lives. And we're going to prove it to you.

In this Taxcast edition, host Naomi Fowler talks to people who've looked at new data that demonstrates this. We wish every CEO, every company board member, every shareholder and every government minister in the world would read this report. Then look us in the eye and tell us why they're not moving every muscle in their body to do what is in their power to protect people, mothers and children. Because when they don't, they do have blood on their hands.
