Corruption is a major impediment to development as it diverts resources from more productive uses and negatively affects shared prosperity by disproportionally benefiting those in power. Aware of the high societal and environmental costs of corruption, the World Bank has reaffirmed its commitment to anticorruption as a development priority and seeks to foster partnerships with other stakeholders who are working towards better governance and integrity. Join us for the Anticorruption for Development Global Forum, which will bring together about 150 partners, leaders, and practitioners from government, private enterprise, academia, civil society, foundations, and other international development organizations working in areas of anticorruption and integrity. This plenary will highlight the role some private sector leaders play in setting a good example and/or in fostering collective action on controlling corruption. Discussion will focus on a variety of relevant issues including compliance, innovation in corruption prevention, detection, concerns, and risks when investing in high-risk environments, and crowding in investment to address climate change.
