We, women tax justice advocates, are pushing for progressive taxation. Regressive taxes hurt the poor and deepens inequality. Women face lower pay, unpaid or low paying care work, & barriers to money & property. This unfair system must end #RewriteTheRules in the #UNTaxConvention

[SAAPE @saape_network]

Working women should not be paying the price for a system that lets billionaires and multinational corporations avoid their fair share. Tax the rich, not the people who keep our economies running.

“The industrial agriculture model brings violence, dispossession, climate emergencies, and imperialist organisation. From Palestine to Brazil, campesinos to Indigenous peoples, the fight for food sovereignty is global.”

#DrawTheLine for a shift to a sustainable, low-carbon economy that is fair and equitable! Reclaim our future. We need a just transition, we need to change the rules for how industries operate, how energy is produced, and how labor rights are protected. https://t.co/LxgvyrtA1Y

The final session moderated by @MVBuenaventura had @AldoCaliari from @JubileeUSA and @mm_bmontes from @SID_INT with their critical take on the Jubilee Report on tackling debt and development crises produced by @Policy_Dialogue

[SAAPE @saape_network]

Jane Nalunga @SeatiniU @SEATINIUGANDA stated that unilateral policies (e.g., EU deforestation law, carbon markets) pose new threats, and we must fight for a fair, inclusive, and predictable system with people and planet at the center.

[SAAPE @saape_network]

Ian Rivera from @PMCJ_Batangas criticised Compromiso de Sevilla for failing to clearly call for
➡️Public, additional, non-debt-creating finance
➡️Just & equitable transition from fossil to renewables
We need climate finance, not empty pledges.

Manjette Lopez @fdc_phils reminded, “The Philippines has an automatic appropriation law, & debt servicing is prioritized. Last year, $1.5 tn was paid in debt service.” On the other hand, in Pakistan, 47% of 2025/26 budget is for debt servicing,” said @FarooqTariq3

[SAAPE @saape_network]

@DavidArcherAA from @ActionAid criticised “It’s not a debt crisis for the IMF unless creditors stop getting paid. We must dismantle this colonial logic & support a UN-led sovereign debt mechanism.”

[SAAPE @saape_network]

@arjunkarki from @RRNNepal : #LDCs, #LLDCs, #SIDS face deep structural disadvantages. What we need is a just & inclusive international financial architecture that supports systemic reform and tackles root causes.

[SAAPE @saape_network]

@lnacpil from @AsianPeoplesMvt stated: The outcome doc was “signed, sealed, and just for delivery” weeks before #FfD4. But being present where power is shaped is essential to confront it directly & deliver our message: #ClimateReparation #DebtJustice #PeopleNotProfits #FfD4People
