Redefining Corruption For Human Development

The primary goal of Redefining Corruption for Human Development is to educate and empower young individuals, particularly students and early-career professionals, to recognize and resist the culture of corruption. As they enter academic institutions, government roles, donor-funded projects, and corporate environments-many of which may be deeply entrenched in corrupt practices-this book equips them with the knowledge to identify unethical behaviors and confidently say no to corruption.

By shedding light on corrupt practices at all levels-from presidents and ministers to auditors, procurement officers, and junior staff-this book serves as a practical guide for ethical decision-making in the workplace.

Additionally, this book offers insights for policymakers and lawmakers to help define and enact stronger anti-corruption policies and laws.

Beyond institutional corruption, Redefining Corruption for Human Development also explores corruption in personal relationships-helping individuals recognize toxic dynamics in marriages, families, and communities. It encourages personal growth, ethical integrity, and the development of relationships based on mutual respect and accountability.
