Anti-corruption strategies in development cooperation

During recent years an increasing number of donors and other organisations working in the international development cooperation sector have drawn up policies and strategies to combat corruption in developing countries. The aim of this study is to provide a broad overview of the approaches and methods used by different international donors and organisations in order to combat corruption in developing countries. The assignment includes making a survey of policies, strategies, action plans and different analytical tools, as well as making a comparative analysis of the main content of the different documents. The following organisations have been included in the study: World Bank, UNDP, EU, NORAD, DFID, OECD and Transparency International. The approaches of the organisations and their main working methods are summarised in the appendix.
