Your right, your role – say #NoToCorruption! The COVID-19 crisis has created new opportunities for corruption to thrive, targeting public procurement and stimulus funds. It is essential to include anti-corruption measures in all COVID-19 response plans. This includes safeguards in emergency legislation, public health procurement and the use of technology, all of which can strengthen recovery from the crisis.
Corruption in the context of COVID-19 increases inequality and disproportionately affects women, youth, and poor and marginalized groups. Young people have experienced an unprecedented disruption in education, employment, social interaction, and their ability to discover the world. They now play a crucial role in building forward for a more just, equitable, resilient, and sustainable world. Countering corruption is an essential part of this endeavour.
