Identifying Opportunities For New or Broader Tax Reform Programmes

There is growing international and domestic consensus around the role of domestic revenue mobilisation (DRM), in particular tax, towards the achievement of a broad range of sustainable development goals, including enabling developing countries to increase scope for self-financing for poverty reduction. It is seen as important for poverty reduction, improved governance, economic growth, ending aid dependency, and stabilisation and state-building. ODI has been commissioned by DFID (through an EY framework agreement) to identify opportunities for new or broader tax reform programmes in Zambia, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Uganda and Burma
