Best practices in engaging youth in the fight against corruption
Abstract
Query
Please provide examples where civil society organisations have successfully mobilised youth (18 – 35 yrs old) to advocate for anti-corruption reforms and/or achieve demonstrable results. If available, analysis about the factors that contributed to the success would be appreciated.
Summary
A significant number of activities to engage youth have been undertaken by the anti-corruption movement, especially in the last decade. These initiative range from Integrity/Democracy Camps and Summer Schools to work within schools and universities, training teachers, developing curricula and setting up Integrity Clubs. Many civil society organisations (CSOs) have also developed awareness-raising campaigns and activities targeted at young people.
