Strengthening Implementation of Anti-Corruption Standards in the Western Hemisphere

This award will support efforts in at least two of four target countries (select among:
Argentina, Ecuador, Panama, and Peru) to identify priority substantive anti-corruption measures and assist in implementation of reform actions related to them.

The substantive measures will be determined

in reference to the international and regional standards to which these countries have agreed, and the recommendations of the peer review bodies associated with them.

Several anti-corruption mechanisms and fora promote action on these standards by facilitating peer recommendations or encouraging country commitments.

Exemplar mechanisms and fora include UNCAC and MESICIC (primary) and the Anti-Bribery Convention, Open Government Partnership, Summit of the Americas and related policy (secondary).

Each of the target countries has engaged in at least one of these entities and has received recommendations or made commitments to address corruption in various ways.

INL intends for this project to initiate a multi-stakeholder process in each country selected for this project to prioritize two to three peer review body recommendations addressed to – or political commitments made by -- the country.

The project should then support the development of action plans and targeted follow-up action (i.e.

technical assistance, advocacy, and coordination) to help governments implement the action plans.

Suggested focus areas in which to develop priorities, action plans, and follow-up measures include judicial integrity/independence, criminalizing foreign bribery, public procurement, public sector ethics, and international legal cooperation.

Supporting action in these areas would aid the criminal justice sector and civil society in making tangible steps to adopt laws, policies, or procedures that either prevent or combat corruption.
