This Sankofa Diaries Podcast episode unpacks the core principles of feminist tax justice and explores how taxation sits at the heart of struggles for gender equality, human rights, and social and economic justice. The conversation examines how governments raise revenue, who bears the burden of taxation, and whose interests national and global tax rules prioritise.

The discussion highlights that tax is not simply about collecting money for governments; the revenue collected should give states the capacity to fulfil their obligations to protect and promote human rights by providing essential services, advancing gender equality, and addressing the increasing risk of ecological collapse.
