Foreword to our Annual Report 2021.
When the year 2021 ended, we were cautiously breathing a sigh of relief. It seemed that the pandemic was starting to get under control in a growing number of countries, and that we could turn our full attention again to the other pandemic, corruption.
Our 2021 Annual Report presents 10 stories from our work around the world to fight corruption and improve governance.
They illustrate the many ways in which we support and collaborate with partners in the public and private sectors, civil society and the international community.
Thank you to all our partners for your continued support in our collective fight against corruption.
