Corruption greatly impedes economic and social growth in Kenya and in other parts of the world.
Every year since the inception of the United Nations Convention in 2003, International Anti-Corruption day is observed on the 9th of December, with the aim of raising awareness on corruption.
AfriCOG, keen on addressing the structural causes of corruption in the public and private sectors in Kenya, celebrated International Anti Corruption day by reminding Kenyans of the negative effects of corruption and highlighting the importance of observing International Anti-Corruption day. AfriCOG provided citizens with information that they themselves can use to monitor governance processes and public ethics issues, in order to be able to effectively participate in the fight against corruption.
