Left behind: Corruption in education and health services in Africa
Corruption undermines sustainable development and the fulfilment of human rights and basic needs. Regardless of where it occurs in the service delivery chain, corruption inevitably trickles down and leads to the widespread denial of access to health care and education. This results in people living in poverty being left behind, with even severer impacts on women, girls and groups at risk of discrimination.
This new publication explores how corruption obstructs access to health care and education in Africa drawing on the results of corruption risk assessments carried out by Transparency International’s national chapters in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Ghana, Madagascar, Rwanda and Zimbabwe.
