International Anti-Corruption Day
International Anti-Corruption Day

International Anti-Corruption Day takes place every year on December 9. By introducing this day, the United Nations wanted to boost awareness of corruption issues and to remind the public of the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC).

So far 183 countries have ratified the UN Convention and committed themselves to the fight against corruption (status: November 21, 2017).

Corruption is a serious offense that impacts the education, health, justice, democracy, prosperity, and development of a country and undermines its social and economic development.
