Corruption and discrimination are global threats that manifest in old and new forms across virtually all levels of society, and deny people access to essential services that they depend on for their future and wellbeing. However, the linkages between these phenomena remain underexplored.
Transparency International and the Equal Rights Trust have engaged groups exposed to discrimination in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Ghana, Madagascar, Rwanda and Zimbabwe to better understand how corruption and discrimination can impact a person’s access to quality education and health care services. This report – Barriers to Basics – presents their stories, experiences and insights, and speaks to the urgent need for action. Individuals must be protected against the harms of corruption and discrimination. Barriers to basic services must be dismantled. Everyone should have their basic needs met.
