In May 2016 the UK hosted an Anti-Corruption Summit, bringing civil society together with over 40 governments and 5 international organisations for the first high-level meeting of its kind. The Summit generated almost 700 individual commitments to anti-corruption and transparency, and all governments signed a communiqué which recognised that tackling corruption is vital for protecting human rights.
Just over a year since the Summit, Transparency International UK is bringing together experts and stakeholders from the anti-corruption and human rights communities to discuss complex cross-cutting issues at a panel event on corruption and human rights.
Join us on 7 September for this exciting event.
