2021-2025

To reduce corruption by strengthening legal frameworks, promoting public-private dialogue and improving private sector capacity to enhance integrity

The Global Action for Business Integrity project aims to strengthen legal frameworks, promote public-private dialogue and guide companies and SMEs to develop compliance programmes to prevent and counter corruption in the private sector.

The project is active in nine countries: Brazil, Colombia, Egypt, Ethiopia, Malaysia, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. In addition, the project has a global component which plays a critical role in upscaling effective approaches, achieving sustainability and disseminating good practices for business integrity in global policy

To achieve its objectives, the project implements several activities which:

Foster legislative reforms to prevent and counter corruption;
Increase government knowledge of legal frameworks and good practices;
Improve communication among the public sector, the private sector, civil society and academia.

The project provides a common platform for dialogue and knowledge-sharing between the public sector, private sector, civil society and academia for countering and preventing corruption.
