Rapid Response Unit
The African Tax Administration Forum (ATAF)’s mandate is to serve the higher purpose of enabling and assisting African Governments to mobilize their own domestic resources through taxation in order to build democratic states that foster economic growth and social development in the interest and well-being of all their citizens.
One of the key points of this mandate is technical assistance delivered to African tax administrations. The technical assistance covers long-term capacity-building support also known as country programme.
The Rapid Response Unit is therefore a dedicated unit to address members’ immediate needs considered as pain points since protracted and long-term needs are addressed by the country programme unit.
