We're continuing to advocate for tax justice, working with our partners around the world as part of the Global Alliance for Tax Justice, helping to bring about this historic deal at the G7.
It might not be everything we’ve campaigned for, or come about as fast as we’d like, but without all your tireless campaigning this change may never have happened.
It's a reminder that although campaigning can be a long game, change will come if you persist.
And what does this historic deal mean for our global neighbours?
The additional tax raised by governments in poorer countries could be used to provide essential services such as clean water, healthcare, education , which can be the difference between life and death.
However, the 15% is already too low – experts have long called for at least 25%, and it’s unclear how many companies will be required to pay. So until all the details are agreed, tax campaigners will remain vigilant.
A final agreement is expected to be made at the G20 summit in Rome in October, but Christian Aid colleagues will be busy advocating for a robust agreement in the meantime. We’ll keep you posted.
