Happy to share a new @ICTDTax publication reflecting on opportunities for property taxation to support local development and service provision in Somaliland, co-authored with Colette Nyirakamana and Warsame M. Ahmed at the University of Hargeisa.
📄In one of our latest research papers, we examine land and #PropertyTax systems in Somaliland’s urban municipalities, suggesting a way forward for the implementation of progressive #taxreform to finance critical urban development. See ➡️ ow.ly/CrRa50TlLrI #TaxTwitter

Check out these really insightful reflections from PhD students @adrienne_lees and @JackIsPriya as they came back from a very productive writing retreat. Nothing like spending time away from day-to-day business to regain focus on research!

So grateful to have the chance to engage with the House of Chiefs on our research, excited for the opportunity to pursue this further!
🌍Exciting news! Our team members @JackIsPriya & @NicolasOrgeiraP presented at the House of Chiefs in #Zambia, discussing challenges & solutions for #propertytax reform in customarily held lands. Engaging discussion with chiefs offered valuable insights for future research #LoGRI

As universities across the UK demand fair pay and pensions @CambridgeUCU I recall the wonderful poem 'Warning'- why humanity needs to think and share-why work and pensions go together- and so important that academia is claiming the right to 'decent work' scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk…

Thank you @Catz_Cambridge for supporting my PhD research on gender and tax compliance in Ethiopia and thanks also to the @ICTDTax for supporting the whole project!
Priya Iyengar Srivatsa, a PhD student at the Centre of #Development Studies, tells us how fieldwork in Ethiopia was possible thanks to support from the Master’s Fund, created with a donation from Jon (1983, Nat Sci) & Ann Ardron: caths.cam.ac.uk/ethiopia-res… @JackIsPriya

"Given the quickening cycles of drought and flooding triggered by global heating, growing hardier alternative crops makes sense." Super interesting article by my supervisor @shailajafennell on making our food systems more resilient
My piece in @ConversationUK on what we learn from the recent floods in Pakistan- for food security- and how moving to sustainable agriculture-we should be thinking of diversifying crop cultivation @CambridgeLandEc @CdsCambridge @MAHSA_Project @TIGR2ESS theconversation.com/pakistan…
Finally got my own copy/autumn companion ❤️ @mervatim
