Global, with a focus on Kenya, Mexico and Pakistan
2019-2025
To equip young graduates with ethical mindsets at the start of their careers in the private sector and empower them to become a driving force for ethical business
To create a business environment where corruption is resisted and no longer tolerated, it is essential that the next generation of business leaders is educated on the risks of corruption and the ways to mitigate and prevent them. By nurturing a dialogue between academia and the private sector on business integrity, the Global Integrity Education project aims to equip young graduates with ethical mindsets and expose them early to the ethical dilemmas they may later face during their professional lives.
