Global - Croatia - Nigeria

Why frontier technologies will drive the fight against corruption. World Economic Forum (WEF) points to 3 important core tensions when looking at the impact that rapid technological development can have future on anti-corruption efforts. Privacy vs Transparency, freedom of speech vs protecting human dignity and freedom of choice vs the need to ensure human autonomy are key dilemmas that should be addressed.

Corruption as the most serious issue in Croatia. A report from Freedom House highlights that even though civil and political rights are generally respected in Croatia, corruption in the public sector is a serious issue, scoring only 2/4. "The score declined from 3 to 2 due to systemic corruption among government ministers and officials" says the report.

EU to Federal Government: Sustain achievements made in deepening democracy through ROLAC programme. The Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption (ROLAC) programme started in 2017 and was implemented in six Nigerian locations. Now that the EU-funded programme is in its close-out phase, there is an expectation that the government of Nigeria surpass the results recorded during the programme in the future, preserving sustained achievements.
