#Transparency #UnitedAgainstCorruption
The 2021 Corruption Perceptions Index released today shows that corruption levels remain at a standstill worldwide. The CPI recorded a regression for Belgium which scores lower in 2021 (73/100) than in 2020 (76/100) and achieves its lowest score since the start of scorekeeping.
Today is International Anti-Corruption Day! Our message to governments is clear: it is time to put anti-corruption high on the agenda and to tackle corruption.

Book reading wishlist! We highly recommend reading Kleptopia: How Dirty Money Is Conquering the World by Tom Burgis. In this book, an investigative journalist exposes “capitalism’s monster”—global kleptocracy—and reveals how it is corrupting the world around us.
Transparency International Belgium states as a priority in the transposition of the Whistleblowers directive that the organizations are legally obliged to establish an internal reporting channel.
Transparency is the principle that people should have insight into how decisions affecting them were made. It is the duty of officials, managers and agencies to act in a transparent, understandable and predictable way.

We are proud that our board member, Anja Siebel, has given a presentation this week at Vlerick Business School Ghent. It is important we educate students and business leaders of the future on the complexities of recognizing and dealing with corruption cases.
Good job, Anja! 💪
