Anti-Corruption Agency Strengthening Initiative Assessment Of The Bangladesh Anti-Corruption Commission 2016.
Transparency International Bangladesh (TIB) has been working with the mission of catalysing an effective and sustained social movement against corruption in Bangladesh. As part of this, TIB has been conducting research and undertaking advocacy initiatives on selected sectors and institutions of public interest with the objective of contributing towards improving their governance and anti-corruption capacity through policy and institutional reforms based on research findings and recommendations.
Anti-Corruption Agencies (ACAs) are specialized institutions within the national integrity system mandated to control and prevent corruption. It is imperative that ACAs operate independently, transparently, accessibly, accountably and effectively and enjoy public trust. They must have the legal mandate and institutional strength to operate with the reputation of efficiency, impartiality, objectivity and professionalism.
