Presentation Transcript

  1. Anti-Corruption UNDP Profile: • At least 80 projects worldwide • DGTTF (2002-05) $3.6m, 20 COs • Increasing concentration in CEE & CIS & post-conflict situations • PACT (1997-2005) ≅$6.25m, >40 COs, small grants facility (PTF) • Tools - CONTACT guidelines & training, 12 case studies, Source Book on ATI, UNCAC / AU implementation kits, Comparative Survey on AC Legislation

  2. Anti-Corruption Types of UNDP interventions (evolving): • Public awareness-raising, advocacy and education • Facilitating participatory process to develop national strategies • Capacity building of dedicated AC institution or sector specific strengthening (e.g. audit, customs) • Local accountability (e.g. participatory budgeting) • Strengthening domestic AC legal frameworks viz UNCAC/int’l commitments & as basis for national strategies

  3. Anti-Corruption UNDP Experience: Mixed results - Catalytic initiatives  Leveraged resources  Built momentum • Political tokenism / poor absorptive capacity  Stalled or Mismanaged  greater public cynicism • UNDP “straight jacketed” by its political neutrality  unable to push for implementation of policies

  4. Anti-Corruption Emerging opportunities: - Internal accountability - Post-conflict situations • UN Convention against Corruption • Building on lessons in local accountability • Working with judicial and legislative branches • Mobilizing public and citizenry (esp. when no political will)  Using accountability and transparency as the entry point for Public Administration Reform

  5. Anti-Corruption Other emerging areas (UNDP has yet to capture): • Measurement of corruption • Corruption in procurement and public contracting • Engaging private sector • Dealing with organized crime (as part of re-establishing rule of law in post-conflict or emerging crisis situations)
