Inequality

Part 1 of the report Financing the Global Sharing Economy demonstrates how systems that facilitate 'economic sharing' are increasingly being eroded by policies that widen inequalities and leave families in a state of poverty or destitution across the world. The result is a silent humanitarian emergency that should be treated as a foremost priority by the international community.

Part 3 of the report 'Financing the Global Sharing Economy' introduces the 10 policies that could enable the international community to mobilise more than $2.8 trillion within a short number of years, money that governments should use to strengthen and scale up the sharing economy both nationally and globally.

This section of the report 'Financing the Global Sharing Economy' argues that preventing the excessive leakage of revenues through tax avoidance and tax evasion is perhaps the first and most important step governments can take to secure additional financial resources and strengthen the sharing economy.

If world leaders and policymakers are paying merely lip service to the unfolding human and environmental catastrophe, is the growing power of the people's voice sufficient to challenge the immense forces that stand in the way of creating a just and sustainable world?
