Jim Yong Kim, President of the World Bank Group, discusses two goals: to end extreme poverty by 2030 and to boost shared prosperity for the bottom 40 percent of the
Population. These efforts require us fight against corruption in its
many forms. He talks about the need to be alert, respond
immediately when things go wrong, learn from the experience,
and assure it doesn’t happen again. He cautions about the
lack of governance, which is a necessary condition for
corruption to thrive. The challenge is to get the
knowledge and tools to the right people at the right time,
and to fully leverage opportunities for reform. World Bank,
with support from Australia, Denmark and Norway, created the
International Corruption Hunters Alliance to engage in what is
happening at a multilateral level, to provide access to the
latest anti-corruption tools and information, and to create the
dialogue that drives our collective effort to beat
corruption. He concludes by saying that the intersection with corruption
and dirty money are undeniable, and the implications for
sustainable, inclusive development are clear. |
