Description
Corruption damages government and it damages business. Globally corruption is big business and big politics. Corruption is estimated to cost 5% of global GDP (about USD $3 trillion): about $1 trillion per year is paid in in bribes; unscrupulous political leaders skim about $40 billion per year, and corruption adds up to about 10 per cent of the total cost of doing business globally.
Corruption is the trading of entrusted authority for personal gain, which distorts the making of public policy or the implementation of public policy. Corruption follows opportunity. Among other things corruption hampers economic performance, discourages investment, reduces tax revenue, distorts services, damages the environment, weakens judicial integrity and the rule of law. The effect of corruption is that it diminishes the quality of life, fosters inefficient public administration and very importantly, diminishes trust.
Corruption exists in both rich and poor countries, but the dynamics are very different.
This course will delve into these issues as well as introduce participants to the analysis of corruption, and through the use of examples provide the skills to classify and understand different types of corruption. This material will help to lay the foundations for more in-depth responses to corruption and the building of integrity in different contexts. Following on from understanding and analysing corruption the course focuses on prevention and responding when corruption is present.
PROGRAMME FOCUS
The focus of this course will be on two dimensions.
First it will introduce participants to the systematic study of corruption, and second, it will introduce students to the processes involved in building integrity in organisations.
Through the use of examples it will provide the skills to classify and understand different types of corruption. This material will help to lay the foundations for more in-depth analysis so that participants will have an understanding of what is involved in preventing and responding to corruption.
Building integrity is more than the mere absence of corruption, and the focus here will be on instruments, processes and structures to develop organisations in which integrity is the norm, and not some desirable but unattainable objective.
