How can tax systems help solve the climate emergency? Is it possible to tax digitalised businesses? And what tax challenges and solutions do ageing populations pose?
These complex, multifaceted questions and more were discussed in Accountancy Europe’s Future-proofing tax: make it green, digital, fair last week, which gathered speakers from around the tax world to discuss how to make taxation green, digital and fair.

Chiara Putaturo, EU Inequality and Tax Policy Advisor at Oxfam opened the panel section of the webinar by stating that a sustainable tax system allows recovery from the current crisis while taking into account the two challenges that are the most relevant for our time: inequality and climate change.
