The GIZ's Anti-Corruption and Integrity Program employs a sector-based approach to combat corruption effectively in international development. By integrating anti-corruption measures into sectoral technical cooperation programs, GIZ addresses specific corruption risks through tailored activities. Case studies from Honduras and the Philippines illustrate successful implementation, demonstrating the program's adaptability across various sectors. “Anticorruption WORKS” is a practical tool designed to foster accountability and integrity, empowering stakeholders and enhancing participatory development cooperation mechanisms.
