Practical
experience shows that the costs of corruption and
mis-governance are enormous in terms of political
stability, as well as on social and economic development.
Meanwhile an efficient and transparent governance
promotes growth and well-being. However, government
authorities, political leaders, civil society representatives
and private sector leaders seldom have the opportunity
to meet and join efforts to analyze and deeply discuss
the multiple dimensions and determinants that cultivate
a strong and transparent governance with no corruption.
The
governance and anti-corruption program, uses a novel
approach, putting together knowledge and practical
experience. It takes into account national requirements
in the fight against corruption and looks for consensus
building processes to design public policies tailored
to the country’s specificities. This program
is two-fold; (i) provides concrete tools to design,
improve and implement action programs to fight corruption
and improve governance; and (ii) creates an environment
in which participants from different segments of society
can work together to review results of successful
(and unsuccessful) practices and reforms.
Successful
anti-corruption programs depend on publicly available
information, political leadership, and collective
action. By stressing these components and through
its integrative logic, this program has been able
to respond to client-country demand and to provide
innovative, action-oriented, non-lending activities
illustrating a new way of doing business in which
the client is in the driver's seat (demand-driven).
