12. HOW CAN WE STOP CORRUPTION
There is no silver bullet for fighting corruption. Many countries have made significant progress in
curbing corruption, however practitioners are always on the lookout for solutions and evidence of
impact. Here are few ways that citizens and governments can make progress in the fight against
corruption:
END IMPUNITY
Effective law enforcement is essential to ensure the corrupt are punished and break the cycle of
impunity, or freedom from punishment or loss. Successful enforcement approaches are supported by
a strong legal framework, law enforcement branches and an independent and effective court system.
EMPOWER CITIZENS
Strengthening citizens demand for anti-corruption and empowering them to hold government
accountable is a sustainable approach that helps to build mutual trust between citizens and
government. For example, community monitoring initiatives have in some cases contributed to the
detection of corruption.
13. REFORM PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AND FINANCE MANAGEMENT
Reforms focusing on improving financial management and strengthening the role of auditing
agencies have in many countries achieved greater impact than public sector reforms on curbing
corruption. One such reform is the disclosure of budget information, which prevents waste and
misappropriation of resources
PROMOTE TRANSPARENCY AND ACCESS TO INFORMATION
Countries successful at curbing corruption have a long tradition of government openness,
freedom of the press, transparency and access to information. Access to information increases the
responsiveness of government bodies, while simultaneously having a positive effect on the levels
public participation in a country.
14. Conclusion
Corruption is an intractable problem. It is like diabetes, can only be controlled, but not totally eliminated.
It may not be possible to root out corruption completely at all levels but it is possible to contain it within
tolerable limits.
Without access to the international financial system, corrupt public officials throughout the world would
not be able to launder and hide the proceeds of looted state assets. Major financial centers urgently
need to put in place ways to stop their banks and cooperating offshore financial centers from absorbing
illicit flows of money.
