Replacing corruption with cultures of integrity
Public Corruption Turnarounds
Public service officials are often confronted with the challenge of tackling public corruption, as mixed motives, power dynamics, and human psychology interact closely with state authority. With the complexities of public service, how can officials maintain integrity while combating corruption?
Overview
Public Corruption Turnarounds is a three-day intensive programme designed to empower public officials with the practical skills and frameworks to tackle endemic corruption, in any country or institution. It combines global research with practical exercises, providing participants with the necessary tools to measure the extent of corruption, gain the confidence to displace it, and shape the culture of a country or organisation.
Is this you?
The course is open to officials leading or planning a turnaround, senior or mid-senior officials addressing entrenched corruption in the departments or institutions they oversee, as well as those working in anti-corruption organisations. We also welcome those in the civil society and the commercial sectors supporting anti-corruption efforts.
