A tax seminar for students following the LL.M course in Cross-Border Taxation of Human Capital was held at the Faculty of Law of Maastricht University on 12 March 2014. The objective of this seminar was to give students a deeper understanding of the interplay between human rights and taxation and of the international tax issues that expatriates face. Dr Marjon Weerepas, associate professor of tax law at Maastricht University, welcomed the speakers as well as the participating students and gave a brief introduction to the subject of the seminar. 

The seminar featured two presentations given by Ms Larisa Gerzova on human rights, principal research associate in the International Bureau of Fiscal Documentation (IBFD), and Mrs Laura Pakarinen on expatriates, senior research associate in the IBFD.
