The 2025 OECD Global Anti-Corruption & Integrity Forum focuses on policy solutions and business innovations that strengthen integrity and fight corruption. The Basel Institute has been selected as an official Knowledge Partner and will host two sessions, including:

1. Innovating for integrity during wartime: Ukraine’s developments since 2022

26 March 2025 | 16:30–18:00 | OECD Auditorium

Despite wartime, Ukraine continues to develop digital innovations highly relevant to corruption prevention efforts. Transformative reforms such as the Prozorro (procurement) and the Prozorro.Sale e-systems, as well as DIIA (e-identification and e-public service infrastructure), eHealth, Reserv+ (military conscription), DREAM (restoration transparency) or the E-declarations register for public officials have been designed to address high-corruption risk public services and, with some modifications, continue to operate effectively during wartime.

While celebrating these innovations, the panel will also look critically to address remaining challenges and discuss the security vs. transparency trade-offs of data openness during a full-scale war.

• Nicolas Descoeudres, Deputy Head of Mission, Minister, Permanent Representation of Switzerland to the OECD
• Elizabeth Andersen, Executive Director, Basel Institute for Governance
