• TI Source Book for the Arab World

Making governments and institutions more accountable are imperatives in improving the economic and social fabric of society in the Arab world. A unique and relevant tool, which has already been translated into 20 languages, the Source Book empowers activists and policymakers alike, providing examples of best practice and paving the way for further anti-corruption work. This is particularly relevant for the Middle East and North Africa, a region rich in heritage and natural resources, but where wealth and benefits frequently fail to flow to those who need them most.

The new Source Book for the Arab World is the result of a need expressed by anti-corruption activists throughout the region. The adaptation of the Source Book to the Arab context aims to address the causes and manifestations of corruption in this geographic and cultural region and develop appropriate tools to fight it. It is the product of a series of workshops and consultations with TI Chapters, the media, the private sector, and members of civil society in the MENA region. To see the Source Book, click here.

• 'Understanding the African Union Convention on Preventing and Combating Corruption and related Offences' brochure

Corruption is exacerbating poverty and deprivation and truncating the democratic process and rules of competition. The adoption of the Heads of State and Government of the African Union Convention on Preventing and Combating Corruption and Related Offences in Maputo, Mozambique in July 2003 is a landmark in the fight against corruption on the African continent. The convention developed by the African Union provides both a regional framework and a transnational process for cooperation and monitoring. Transparency International’s handbook explains this important convention in simple language. It is intended to inform and encourage, assisting the African citizenry’s fight against corruption.
