Who Supports Us

We are very thankful to all those who generously support our work to shape a world in which government, business, civil society and the daily lives of people are free of corruption.

How we’re funded

We receive funding from a range of donors, including government agencies, multilateral institutions, foundations, the private sector and individuals. Funding may be unrestricted or tied to specific projects or programmes.

It is our policy to accept funding – whether monetary or in kind – from any donor, provided that acceptance does not impair our independence to pursue our mission or endanger our integrity and reputation. For more information, please see our donations policy.
