🚀 CREDAF, in collaboration with the Secretariat of the Network of Tax Organisations #NTO, has launched its Women in Tax Network and Pilot Mentorship Programme, an initiative that aims to empower #women to take on #leadership roles in tax administrations as well as inspire young women to join the field. The programme brings together over 60 participants — tax professionals at entry, mid, and senior levels — from CREDAF member #tax administrations.   Earlier this week, on 17 December, the programme hosted its orientation session. Opened by catherine Lemesle (CREDAF) and Stefanie Rauscher (NTO Secretariat), the session outlined the six-month programme’s objectives, structure, and support mechanisms, highlighting the importance of #mentorship and goal-setting as keys to leadership success. Another exciting milestone for #WomeninTax: the Pacific Islands Tax Administrators Association is already piloting a tailored programme in the #Pacific region 👉 https://lnkd.in/dSUQRPkr The International Tax Compact facilitates the Secretariat of the NTO 💼 FR: 🚀 Le CREDAF, en collaboration avec le Secrétariat du Réseau des Organisations Fiscales, a lancé son programme pilot de leadership «Femmes en fiscalité».
