More than 1,900 people from 140 countries gathered in Brasilia to discuss one of the most pressing issues of our time: corruption in today’s world.

When the International Anti-Corruption Conference last met in Bangkok in 2010, the raging financial crisis made restoring trust an imperative. Since then, as a result of the lessons learned not being put into practice, the world has seen countless examples of trust abused.

Trust continues to be eroded. Many realise that in politics,…

Dear CORRUPTION,



First of all, as our friend David Garcia would say, YOU ARE IN BAD SHAPE! Well, for one, we, the GYAC-N representatives at the 14th IACC, are out to get ya, joining 1,000-strong anti-corruption advocates from the world over.
