6.iv.6: Promoting Integrity in Education

To promote accountable education policies and practices, as well as the importance of education to the development of high standards of professional and personal integrity.

Other Information:

Anti-corruption education is a vital and necessary component of any anti-corruption strategy. Education builds citizens' expectations and enforces demands for accountability. But when the education system itself is corrupt, how can children learn the values that underlie a transparent and accountable society? When money counts more than knowledge in the quest for a diploma, studying and learning lose their purpose. As such, TI will focus on both anti-corruption education and on corruption in the education sector.
