The "Przeciw
Korupcji" Program (Against Corruption Program) is an
independent program of the Stefan Batory Foundation and the
Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights. The main goal of the
Program is to initiate and develop a public movement which
will build public responsibility and assure that activity at
all governmental levels becomes and remains responsible and
transparent. This movement will attempt to rebuild society's
trust into public institutions and encourage greater public
participation in all aspects of public life. The Program
received a grant from the Ford Foundation that provides basic
funding for two years of activities.

The Asian Development Bank
(ADB) and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and
Development (OECD) jointly organized, in association with
partner institutions and with the support of the Government of
Korea, the "Seoul Conference on Combating Corruption
in the Asia-Pacific Region." The Conference was
held in Seoul, South Korea on 11-13 December 2000.
The
objective of this Conference was to review the progress made
in the fight against corruption in the region, based on the
policy recommendations adopted at the first meeting of the
ADB/OECD Forum on Combating Corruption held in Manila in 1999.
The focus was on strengthening the co-operation between the
different stakeholders in the fight against corruption,
including governments, businesses, universities, the media,
and civil society. The meeting's aim was to support all
stakeholders in leading an efficient fight against corruption
in the region. By gathering representatives of the main actors
in the field of anti-corruption, the Seoul Conference assisted
participating countries in developing well-targeted
anti-corruption programs by providing examples of success
stories and best practices gathered from ongoing national and
regional initiatives.
