The theme for International Anti-Corruption Day 2022 is тАЬUniting the world against corruption“. The 2022 International Anti-Corruption Day (IACD) seeks to highlight the crucial link between anti-corruption and security, and development.

What did UN Secretary-General say on Corruption?

‘Corruption is immoral, criminal offence, and the absolute betrayal of public trust. It is even more adverse in crisis times as the world is encountering now with the COVID-19 Epidemic. The reaction to the virus is establishing new opportunities to manipulate weak surveillance and inadequate translucency, deflecting funds away from people in the times of their greatest need.’ Said UN Secretary-General Ant├│nio Guterres, on Corruption in the context of COVID-19.

How does Corruption Impact?

Corruption ambushes the organization of democratic institutions by perverting the rule of law, altering electoral processes, and establishing bureaucratic quagmires whose only justification for prevailing is the soliciting of bribes. Economic development is hindered because foreign direct investment is discouraged, and small businesses within the nation often find it impossible to overcome the start-up expenses required because of Corruption.
