Have you ever wondered why 1% of the richest owns more than half of the global wealth?
How do companies influence global politics and economics? And what do we mean when we say corporate capture?
Have a look at a fantastic new comic series created by our partners from ESCR-Net explaining these complex issues in simple words. The Power of the 99% to Stop Corporate Capture comic series is shedding light on the widespread global phenomenon of corporate capture or influence on government institutions and decision-making. It illustrates the corporate capture of the United Nations and how we can overcome it.
