🌐 The Tax Justice Network will be speaking at the 12th Session of the Africa Regional Forum on Sustainable Development (ARFSD-12) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

📍 Side event: Moving Beyond Extractivism to Care-Centered Approaches to Africa’s Just Energy Transition
📅 30 April 2026
🕐 13:00 – 14:30

As Africa is positioned at the center of the global green transition, critical questions remain about who benefits and on what terms.

This session will examine how current energy transition models risk reproducing extractive and unequal economic relations, and what it would take to shift toward care-centered, equitable approaches.

The discussion will also explore how tax justice and the ongoing UN Tax Convention negotiations can support public financing for a just energy transition.

🎤 Speakers include: Bemnet Agata Tax Justice Network , Dr Marit Y. Kitaw, Ph.D. (UNECA ), Mehjabeen Alarakhia (UN Women), Eugene Nforngwa (PACJA)

As ecological crises deepen and inequality grows, the assumption that economic growth alone can eradicate poverty is increasingly being challenged.

This global conference will bring together experts, policymakers, civil society and trade unions to explore how we can eradicate poverty on a finite planet without relying on perpetual economic growth.

🌎The event will also see the launch of the Roadmap for Eradicating Poverty Beyond Growth, a collaborative effort by UN agencies, civil society, unions, and academic experts who have been working since 2024 to identify proposals that can achieve social progress and wellbeing without relying on perpetual economic growth.

✨Be part of the conversation shaping how we eradicate poverty in the 21st century.

🌍 Financial Secrecy has entered the EU rulebook

From July 2027, obliged entities will be required to take into account in geographic risk assessments under European Union rules. This reflects a long-standing insight: secrecy is central to how economic crime operates.

Evidence shows that higher levels of secrecy are associated with greater exposure to illicit financial flows, particularly where opacity intersects with large volumes of financial activity.

Many AML frameworks still rely on simplified country classifications, including “high-risk” lists. In practice, this can generate high volumes of low-value alerts while more material risks remain under-scrutinised.

A more robust approach integrates measurable secrecy indicators with financial flow data, given how concentrated financial activity, and therefore risk, is in a small number of major financial centres. This supports:
🟢 more accurate risk prioritisation
🟢 improved transaction monitoring
🟢 reduced false positives
🟢 stronger detection of illicit financial flows

🔎 How risk is defined shapes where scrutiny is directed and which financial flows are prioritised.

The question now is whether this progress will remain at the level of compliance or extend to addressing the policy choices that sustain financial secrecy.
