U4
Promoting an informed approach to anti-corruption
Corruption remains an important challenge for a well-functioning public sector.
Through the U4 Anti-Corruption Resource Centre, CMI has since 2003 worked to improve the effectiveness of donor-supported anti-corruption reforms through research, training, and targeted advice to practitioners. U4 has recently expanded its work on the health sector and natural resource management, and started a new stream of research on illicit financial flows. An innovative new series of case studies, called ‘Practice Insights’, document lessons learned from anti-corruption interventions. In-country and online training are important outlets for research communication. The Essentials of Anti-Corruption online course, provided to U4 partner agency staff, provides an introduction to anti-corruption reform and highlights ongoing debates in the field.
