1. Background of the assignment:
Since July 2021, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has been implementing the “Global Action for Business Integrity” project aims to strengthen legal frameworks, promote public-private dialogue, increase governments’ knowledge of legal frameworks and good practices and improve private sector capacity to enhance business integrity. The project advocates and works to ensure all relevant stakeholders from the private sector, public sector, civil society and academia come together to develop joint solutions to prevent and fight corruption in a sustainable manner through Collective Action. Despite progress in recent years, corruption remains a key impediment to sustainable development, with the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated challenges to business integrity by disrupting supply chains and by producing rapid shifts in corruption risks for companies.
