SCIENTIFIC COORDINATION:

The mission of the Global Tax Symposia (GTS) is to be an interdisciplinary mobile research platform on fundamental issues of international and comparative taxation. It is grounded on the belief that crossing African, American, Asian-Pacific and European perspectives is beneficial to all participants, especially in the current political and economic global context. It aims to offer young researchers and more experienced scholars a forum where to discuss five to six papers every year in different cities on all continents. Each paper is discussed by an interdisciplinary and intercontinental panel whose members are leading tax academics, administrators, policymakers and practitioners.

The following institutions support the initiative : Chinese University of Hong Kong and Wuhan University (People's Republic of China), London School of Economics (United Kingdom), UC Louvain (Belgium), University of Melbourne (Australia), University of Pretoria (South Africa), Universidad Torcuato Di Tella (Argentina), National Institute of Public Finance and Policy (India) and New York University (United States of America).

The 2020 Global Tax Symposium was held online using the platform of UCLouvain, and co-hosted by London School of Economics and the University of Melbourne.
