Anti-Corruption Work Around the World

| In November, TI’s national chapter in Morocco, l’Association marocaine de lutte contre la corruption Transparency Maroc, has launched its National Observatory on Corruption and Development. The Observatory aims at enforcing the right to information by providing citizens with high quality information. It additionally works to fight against corruption and to promote transparency and good governance in Morocco. |
An information system will help with processing, synthesising and passing the information on to relevant groups. Initially, on an experimental basis, the Observatory will give judicial assistance to corruption victims, and plans to produce a guide offering guidance, procedures and relevant addresses to the victims of corruption.
The publication Transparency News has been created to highlight the issues that are dealt with by the Observatory and will be based on the collected information. Every edition will focus on one topic. The first edition is concentrating on the evaluation of this year’s elections in Morocco, including a detailed analysis of the election process and the evaluation of the different parties.
The establishing of the institution follows Morocco’s ratification of the UN Convention against Corruption and just when the government is preparing an Action Plan related to the creation of a national anti-corruption agency. The project is supported by the Dutch embassy in Morocco.
