For a fairer, more transparent tax system

TJA represents the growing number of people talking about greater transparency, equality and fairness in national and global tax systems.

We believe the foundation of a modern society like Aotearoa New Zealand is a just taxation system, comprising both revenue gathering and expenditure.

This system should: 

  • be based on fairness and equity;
  • protect, promote and uphold human rights;
  • facilitate social and economic well-being;
  • promote financial stability;
  • accomplish these goals in a way that is environmentally sustainable.

Founded in August 2018, we provide analysis, ideas and information to encourage informed discussion about how tax builds societies where all people flourish.

Check out our policy ideas + latest news.
