International Institutions

International Institutions play a vital role in the fight against corruption and the CSC is proud to work with many of the world’s leading institutions in this fight. As well as advising on anti-corruption issues, our team are vital members of working groups and academic roundtables.

G20 Anti-Corruption Working Group

In September 2020, Liz David-Barrett was invited to present suggestions on priority areas for action to the G20 Anti-Corruption Working Group, along with Arturo Bris (IMD), Alexey Konov (HSE), Brigitte Seim (U. of North Carolina) and Thomas Stelzer (IACA). Subsequently, the CSC was invited to co-convene - in partnership with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) - an Anti-Corruption Academic Roundtable on behalf of the G20 Saudi Presidency. Professor Liz David-Barrett opened the discussion with an Introduction to the three topics: (i) cooperation among law enforcement agencies; (ii) corruption in public procurement; and (iii) measuring corruption and the impact of anti-corruption policy. The discussions formed the basis for a set of recommendations which Professor Liz David-Barrett presented to the G20 Anti-Corruption Working Group on 19 October and to the Ministerial Meeting on 22 October 2020.
