16. Comparative data, that goes into the specifics of what is going on
(input and output), is essential to guide government reform. Some
encouraging efforts in this regard (e.g. bribery). But more needed.
Beware of compartmentalization (e.g. tools, “public sector, private
sector”). Successful design of integrity and transparency policies
requires systemic thinking. One can not achieve impact without
the other.
Keep the big picture as the guide. Investing in transparency,
investing in integrity matters a great deal for our progress as
societies. Today, perhaps more than ever.
