About the Basel Institute on Governance

The Basel Institute on Governance is a hands-on centre of competence dedicated to promoting good governance and countering corruption for a more peaceful, just and sustainable world. Established in 2003 in Basel, Switzerland, the Institute works with partners worldwide to advance knowledge, practice and policy on anti-corruption, asset recovery and business integrity. With field operations worldwide, it has some 150 staff covering 32 nationalities. The Basel Institute is an Associated Institute of the University of Basel.

Project: Business Integrity Initiative project

The Basel Institute on Governance is launching a new project to strengthen the prevention of corruption and promote responsible business. Building on the Basel Institute’s leadership and experience in Collective Action, the project will mentor and support current and potential Collective Action leaders, demonstrate its applicability across a wide range of corruption-related risk areas, and promote the concept of Collective Action so that it becomes sustainably anchored through the B20 Collective Action Hub.

Assignment

This consultancy assignment will assist in validating our monitoring and impact evaluation system that will track the immediate and short-term changes brought about by the Basel Institute’s project activities (outcomes) and the long-term, higher-level changes, which the project makes towards clean business and fair market conditions (impact).

- The Basel Institute’s Key Performance Indicator (KPI), to capture G20 country engagement and uptake of Collective Action via the B20 Collective Action Hub.

Reporting

The consultant will report to the Senior Specialist, Collective Action, who is the project manager for this project.
