In this episode of The Spark, we interview Mie Torp Hansen, Community Engagement Manager for Millionaires for Humanity, whose job consists of finding and engaging millionaires around the world who support a wealth tax. Millionaires for Humanity advocates for a wealth tax of 1% on multimillionaires, to support the COVID-19 recovery, tackle poverty and climate change and achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals. We talk about the progress of Millionaires for Humanity, about the idea of a global minimum wealth tax of 1% per year, and why philanthropy is not enough.

ABOUT MILLIONAIRES FOR HUMANITY

Millionaires for Humanity advocates for a wealth tax of 1% on multimillionaires, to support the COVID-19 recovery, tackle poverty and climate change and achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Research by the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network highlighted the funding gap for the world to meet the Sustainable Development Goals and the resources that a 1% wealth tax could raise to help enable this.

Millionaires for Humanity aims to help address this funding gap in partnership with all stakeholders, such as the UN, governments, finance think tanks, and grassroots organisations.

Hallo Damen und Herren,
gibt´s in Euer Organisation LEDIGE FRAUEN, die noch einen Ehemann und KINDER möchten? 🙂
Ich bin zwar etwas älter, möchte aber gerne eine Frau für Familie + noch Kind/er kriegen.
Bin ich zu alt oder zu arm dafür?
LG aus Hannover.
