Working Paper No. 2/2007 Addressing Corruption and Building Integrity in Defence Establishments
Global defence is a big business, with expenditures exceeding more than US $1 trillion. Yet the defence establishment has historically been one of the least open of any government organisation. The secrecy that necessarily veils some defence activities often extends more widely than can be justified, making the sector particularly vulnerable to the abuse of corruption. Working with the military, governments and civil society can help to build the integrity of the system, promote accountability and increase the transparency of dealings.
