Simple ways young people can fight corruption
Today is International Youth Day – a day marking the many ways that young people can transform their societies.
Transparency International believes that today’s youth are the future leaders of the fight against corruption. Young people who promote integrity also promote a better future for everyone.
We put together a simple guide on ways young people can get involved in the fight against corruption – from using tech tools and theatre performances, to organising petitions, protests and integrity camps.
Have a look at our toolkit and see what might work in your community.
These short videos show some of the ideas in action.
Transparency International School on Integrity
This July, 120 young people from 60 countries gathered in Vilnius, Lithuania for the Transparency International School on Integrity. This annual event gathers students, graduates and young professionals for an in-depth training on how to take a stand against corruption and promote integrity in their societies.

Since 2010, the School on Integrity has welcomed more than 800 young leaders from around 90 countries worldwide. Will you be there next year?
