Corruption risk assessment and management workshop with Eastern Partnership countries

Under the framework of the EU-Council of Europe Partnership for Good Governance, a regional workshop was organised in Strasbourg on "Corruption risk assessment and management tools in the Eastern Partnership (EaP) region" on 22 and 23 January 2024.

 

The workshop brought together practitioners from anti-corruption and policy making institutions from five countries from the EaP region (Republic of Moldova, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia). The event contributed to sharing good comparative practices related to identifying and assessing corruption risks in the public and private sector but also to presenting the Council of Europe's approach to national corruption risk assessment.

The event aimed at strengthening cooperation in the EaP region by allowing participating jurisdictions to share experiences regarding their own institutional or external corruption risk assessment practices and discuss provisions of the legislative/regulatory frameworks.

The Project will continue to provide support in the EaP region through raising awareness about new solutions and innovations developed in other jurisdictions in the field of combating and preventing economic crime, offer policy recommendations and provide a framework for cooperation and exchange of experience between the countries.

This event is part of the European Union and the Council of Europe joint programme “Partnership for Good Governance", co-funded by the European Union and the Council of Europe, and implemented by the Council of Europe, in the framework of the regional project on “Strengthening measures to prevent and combat economic crime in the Eastern Partnership region".
