L’OTR lance le réseau des femmes travaillant dans la fiscalité

ATAF Communications • December 14, 2021

L'Office Togolais des Recettes a lancé ce mercredi 08 décembre 2021, la sensibilisation sur le réseau des femmes travaillant dans le secteur de la fiscalité. Le réseau des femmes du secteur de la fiscalité (RFSF) est une innovation de l’African Tax Administration Forum (ATAF). 


Il est né du constat de la faible représentativité du genre féminin dans le domaine, surtout dans les hautes sphères de l’administration fiscale en Afrique. Ce réseau vise à offrir aux femmes professionnelles de la fiscalité, une plateforme de rencontre, d’échange et de perfectionnement de leurs talents et compétences. 


Le lancement a été meublé par un riche panel sous le thème "Comment s’affirmer en tant que femme dans un domaine à forte dominance masculine?". C’était en présence de Mme Awa Nana-Daboya, Médiateur de la République et Marraine de l'Association des Femmes de l'OTR, Mme Ahlonkoba AITHNARD, Ministre-Conseiller du Président de la République et du Commissaire Général de l'OTR, Phillippe Kokou Tchodie, Président en exercice de l’ATAF. 

Les membres du RFSF discutent de l’importance de l’égalité entre les sexes. Regardez les échanges ici.

OTR raises awareness around the Women in tax network


On Wednesday 8th December 2021 the Office Togolais des Recettes (OTR) launched an awareness campaign around the network for women working in the field of taxation. The Women in tax network (AWITN) is an innovation of the African Tax Administration Forum (ATAF), inspired from the fact that women are poorly represented in the field of tax, especially at the highest levels of tax administration in Africa.


The network aims to provide a platform for female tax professionals to meet, exchange ideas and hone their talents and skills. 


The launch was marked by a rich panel discussion with the theme "How to assert oneself as a woman in a male-dominated field?” The event was attended by Mrs. Awa Nana-Daboya, national Ombudsman and Patroness of the OTR Women's Association, Mrs. Ahlonkoba Aithnard, Minister-Advisor to the President of the Republic, and OTR Commissioner General Phillippe Kokou Tchodie, current ATAF Chairman.

Na quarta-feira 8 de Dezembro de 2021, Office Togolais des Recettes (OTR) lançou uma campanha de sensibilização sobre a rede para as mulheres que trabalham no domínio fiscal. A Rede para as Mulheres no Domínio Fiscal (AWITN) é uma inovação do Fórum Africano das Administrações Tributárias (ATAF), inspirada no facto de as mulheres estarem pouco representadas no domínio fiscal, especialmente nos níveis mais altos das administrações tributárias em África. A rede tem como objectivo proporcionar uma plataforma para as profissionais femininas no domínio fiscal se encontrarem, trocarem ideias e aperfeiçoarem os seus talentos e competências.

O lançamento foi marcado por um rico painel de discussão sobre o tema "Como afirmar-se como mulher num campo dominado por homens". O evento contou com a presença da Sra. Awa Nana-Daboya, Provedora de Justiça nacional e Padroeira da Associação de Mulheres da OTR, da Sra. Ahlonkoba Aithnard, Ministra- Assessora do Presidente da República, e do Comissário Geral da OTR, Phillippe Kokou Tchodie, actual Presidente do ATAF.
