Global Days of Action on Tax Justice for Women’s Rights 2025

GDOA Campaign Overview | Thank you | What’s Next


** GDOA Campaign Overview
------------------------------------------------------------

The visual summary of the 2025 Global Days of Action on Tax Justice for Women’s Rights.

From March 7 - 21st, 2025, we came together during the 9th Global Days of Action on Tax Justice for Women’s Rights to demand “Progressive Taxation for an Inclusive and Just Social Organisation of Care!”

With a diverse programme of activities including webinars, marches, parallel events to the 69th UN Commission on the Status of Women, and a social media campaign, we united as tax justice and women’s rights movements with shared demands. We look forward to continuing building upon this momentum in the year to come!

The GDOA Demands

During the GDOA, we amplified the demand to #MakeTaxesWorkForWomen and for #ProgressiveTax4Care across our events and online.

Each of our five demands was highlighted with blogs written by members of the Tax and Gender Working Group. Read the blogs here:
1. Progressive taxation for a gender-transformative social organisation of care ([link removed])
2. Incorporate gender-transformative provisions into the UN Tax Convention ([link removed])
3. Increase public investment in care public systems ([link removed])
4. Acknowledge and value unpaid care work in economic systems ([link removed])
5. Ensure gender equality in tax systems and public services ([link removed])

About GATJ
The Global Alliance for Tax Justice (GATJ) is a South-led global coalition in the tax justice movement. Together we work for a world where progressive and redistributive tax policies counteract inequalities within and between countries, and generate the public funding needed to ensure essential services and human rights. GATJ coordinates the Tax and Gender Working Group (TGWG) and co-coordinates the Tax Justice Workstream of the CS FfD Mechanism.

About the TGWG
The TGWG was established by GATJ in 2016 as a dedicated platform for its members and committed partners to directly engage in campaign and policy advocacy efforts on tax and gender issues. It brings together grassroots movements, women’s rights organisations, trade unions, non-governmental organisations, and civil society organisations.

The TGWG has collectively coordinated the Global Days of Actions on Tax Justice for Women’s Rights, as well as the
Framing Feminist Taxation Guides (volume 1 ([link removed]) and volume 2 ([link removed]) ), which provide guidance and recommendations for policy-making and advocacy that can influence and change our current economic and tax systems for a feminist future. In addition to this, members collaborate on opinion pieces, policy briefs, workshops, trainings, and actively participate in global, regional and national policy spaces.
