How does Transparency International fight corruption?
Through its International Secretariat in Berlin, Germany, and more than 90 national chapters around the world, Transparency International works at the national and international levels to change laws, regulations and practices in order to stamp out corruption and prevent its recurrence. Expertise from national chapters, an Advisory Council, the International Secretariat, volunteer specialists and other sources are brought together to maximise TI’s impact. Other international organisations join TI in adopting and monitoring multilateral agreements that increase information-sharing, close legal loopholes and increase cooperation. In developing coalitions with stakeholders from all sectors of society, TI works with high-profile individuals and decision-makers, civil society, think-tanks and other institutions. A key element of TI’s work is the analysis and diagnosis of corruption, measuring its scope, frequency and manifestations through surveys and indices, as well as other research. Pol
