Illicit financial flows: why we should claim these resources for gender, economic and social justice

This policy brief, published by the Association for Women's Rights in Development (AWID), concentrates on three issues. The first is the basic concept of illicit financial flows (IFFs) and their disproportional gender impact, in relation to the drain in developing countries of critical resources, for the advancement of women’s human rights.

Lastly, the third issue focuses on policy recommendations, from a feminist perspective, on how to demand transparency and corporate accountability in order to curb illicit financial flows.
