Goals / Remit
Eurodad (the European Network on Debt and Development) is a network of 50 civil society organisations (CSOs) from 20 European countries, which works for transformative yet specific changes to global and European policies, institutions, rules and structures to ensure a democratically controlled, environmentally sustainable financial and economic system that works to eradicate poverty and ensure human rights for all.
Our focus is on strengthening the power of European CSOs, working as part of a global movement to push governments and powerful institutions to adopt transformative changes to the global economic and financial system.
Eurodad's Strategic Plan sets ambitious goals to help achieve: tax justice to stem the loss of resources in developing countries;
ending debt crises that hinder economic progress; effective aid that will transform lives;
publicly-backed private finance and investment agreements that accelerate development results;
climate finance that is responsive to the climate adaptation and mitigation priorities of developing countries;
and financial sector rules that promote prosperity and do no harm.
Eurodad also has crosscutting priorities, which we integrate into all our work, of gender equality, global economic good governance, and responsible finance standards.
The main institutions targeted by the Eurodad network include European governments, the World Bank, the United Nations, International Monetary Fund and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
Eurodad's vision is a world with:
Economic justice for all – an end to relative poverty and to the concentration of wealth and power in the hands of a few. Fair, democratic, accountable and transparent governance – at local, national, regional and global level where all countries have a say, and all people can exercise their right to participate. Finance that serves the people – and helps ensure human rights for all, and an environmentally sustainable planet. This means it is publicly regulated to meet social ends and recognise environmental limits, and enhances systems of redistribution to ensure economic justice.
Eurodad's key strengths include:
Our deep and detailed understanding of the issues we work on.
Our respected position with other allies and civil society networks, and our work with global and regional coalitions, in particular, our ability to develop joint strategies within our membership network, and our strong cooperation with allies from the global south.
Our good connections to policy-makers and other influencers.
Our ability to develop results-focussed strategies, and track progress to our goals.
We adopt a flexible approach to the role we play, ensuring we focus on what our most useful contribution can be – in any given situation – to making the desired transformative policy change happen, recognising the strengths of our members and partners. We prioritise cooperation with partners from the global south, seeking to work in partnership whenever possible, to listen to and respect their priorities, and to try to align ourselves to those.
Eurodad has existed since 1990 and has been registered as a non-profit organisation in Belgium since 2005. Full information on Eurodad’s funding and finances is available in our annual reports here: http://www.eurodad.org/sites/annual

Eurodad works for transformative yet specific changes to global and European policies, institutions, rules and structures to ensure a democratically controlled, environmentally sustainable financial and economic system that works to eradicate poverty and ensure human rights for all. The network engages with EU initiatives to promote legislative action for tax justice, regulate vulture funds and end uncritical promotion of public private partnerships to finance social and economic infrastructure, as well as analysis of official development assistance and policy coherence for development.
Eurodad advocates for transparency rules for all large multinational companies through public country by country reporting, including on the Proposal for a DIRECTIVE OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL amending Directive 2013/34/EU as regards disclosure of income tax information by certain undertakings and branches. Eurodad also carries out research and advocacy on preventing corporate tax avoidance, addressing the problems of the corporate tax system, and for strong whistle-blower protection and progressive taxation.
Eurodad is conducting research and advocacy activities on the implementation of the European External Investment plan as well as the next EU budget (2021-2027) , in particular the NDICI, which are currently under negotiation. Eurodad is also monitoring the ongoing discussions in the EC and the Council on the European financial architecture for development.
The main institutions targeted by the Eurodad network are European governments, the European Parliament and the European Commission, the United Nations, the World Bank, International Monetary Fund and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.Address
