Published by Transparency International, it highlights the efforts of eleven countries in bringing corruption and good governance on youth agenda. Education is central to preventing corruption. Even clear laws and regulations and well-designed institutions will not be able to prevent corruption, unless citizens actively demand accountability from government and institutions. The attitudes and expectations of citizens are crucial in building a responsive public administration. Therefore, fostering attitudes that do not tolerate corruption is at the core of Transparency International’s (TI’s) work. Ethics education for young people can help to break the cycle of corruption, as today’s youth will be the potential leaders of tomorrow. However, anti-corruption education does not work in isolation. The environment in which children grow up plays a decisive role in shaping their attitudes. Ethics education must be part of a broader effort to improve governance and reduce corruption.
