INSouth

New Rules for Global Finance is a coalition of development, human rights, labor, environmental, and religious organizations and scholars dedicated to the reform of the global financial architecture in order to stabilize the world economy, reduce poverty and inequality, uphold fundamental rights, and protect the environment. We have been working on IMF governnance; bringing balance to the IMF Reform Debate; poverty impact assessments of macro-economic policies; south-south sharing of successful tax practices with UNDP's Special Unit on South-South Cooperation, UNDESA, and Tax Justice Network. And of course tracking the current financial crisis, solutions, and inclusion of poor countries into the conversations about how to move forward.

Four regional reports plus the concluding document with recommendations from the Bringing Balance tothe IMF Reform Debate can be found at: http://www.cigionline.org/community.igloo?r0=community&r0_script=/scripts/folder/view.script&r0_pathinfo=/{7caf3d23-023d-494b-865b-84d143de9968}/Publications/conferen/testa~2&r0_output=xml This was a joint project of New Rules, the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI) in Waterloo Canada, and Global Economic Governance PRogramme at Oxford University.
