TIWB Stakeholders Workshop

This Stakeholders Workshop brings together tax audit experts, host/partner administrations, regional and international partners, as well as donors. Stakeholders will take stock of the practical lessons learned over the past five years of TIWB activities. The sessions will seek to shed light on key issues around programme implementation, including the challenges faced in remote assistance in light of the COVID-19 crisis. The Secretariat will also provide a presentation about the outcomes of a recent stocktake of TIWB. The results and lessons learned will be fed directly into the planning of TIWB programmes in 2020 and beyond. The Stakeholders Workshop will be chaired by TIWB Governing Board member, John Christensen.
