Nominations Invited for Global Anti-Corruption Award
Global anti-corruption research organization Transparency International is inviting nominations for its Anti-Corruption Award which recognises the courage and determination of individuals and organisations fighting corruption around the world.
The Anti-Corruption Award honours individuals and organisations worldwide, including journalists, public prosecutors, government officials, and civil society leaders.
Transparency believes that winners are a source of inspiration to the anti-corruption movement because their actions echo a common message: that corruption can be challenged.

The Anti-Corruption Award may be conferred to a person (or an organisation) discharging official or professional duties as well as to an activist(s) from all walks of life.
The Anti-Corruption Award Committee, the body responsible for evaluating nominations and choosing winners, may choose up to two award recipients. In making these awards, the Committee will take into consideration the need to recognise efforts in diverse fields of civil society, the private sector and government and to acknowledge anti-corruption initiatives throughout the world.
The Award consists of a trophy and participation in a public award ceremony during the 18th edition of the International Anti-Corruption Conference to take place from the 22nd to the 24th of October 2018 in Copenhagen, Denmark.
