Inclusive Anti-Corruption
Transparency International team at annual project meeting in Antananarivo, Madagascar, in 2024.
Overview
The Transparency International Secretariat (TI-S) and the Transparency International chapters in Democratic Republic of Congo, Ghana, Madagascar, Rwanda and Zimbabwe, in partnership with Transparency International Canada and the Transparency International Global Thematic Network Initiative on Health (GTNI) on Health, are implementing the project “Inclusive Service Delivery Africa” from 2022 to 2026, with funding from Global Affairs Canada (GAC).
According to Transparency International's Global Corruption Barometer – Africa 2019, one in four users of public services paid a bribe. This issue is especially damaging to women, girls and groups at risk of discrimination, who often rely more heavily on public services.
Objectives
Through this project, Transparency International aims to improve access to education and healthcare services for women, girls, and other groups at risk of discrimination in Africa by addressing corruption-related barriers.
Transparency International Canada is contributing to the project in two ways:
Supporting TI Madagascar in conducting a study on the impact of gendered social norms on access to services.
Sharing the project’s learnings with Canadian civil society organizations working with groups at risk of discrimination, to share anti-corruption as an approach to anti-discrimination work.
