Background

Alliance for Integrity brings together private sector companies, civil society organizations, and governments to share knowledge and best practices on integrity and anti-corruption measures. Through its various programs and activities, the Alliance for Integrity seeks to create a business environment that promotes transparency, ethical behaviour, and responsible corporate governance. It also works to raise awareness about the negative impacts of corruption on economic development and to promote the adoption of integrity and anti-corruption policies within the private sector.
