On Nigeria

Founded in 1965, the grantee works collaboratively to eradicate poverty and reduce inequality by focusing on sustainable development, democratic governance and peace building, and climate and disaster resilience. With this new award, it's Staff are leading an exploratory process that brings together anti-corruption practitioners, government representatives, members of professional associations, and donors to identify new collaborative anti-corruption interventions that cross geography, sectors, and professional disciplines. To give the work boundaries, the pilot effort focuses on Nigeria and West Africa and traces corruption connections to wealthy destination countries. The outputs of the project are a series of workshops and a final learning brief that outlines conclusions, promising new approaches, obstacles, opportunities, and entry points to address cross-border corruption. By the end of the project, coalition members aim to identify at least one intervention to test to reduce cross-border corruption in Nigeria and West Africa. The award is expected to contribute new information on corruption links from Nigeria and West Africa to destination countries and new knowledge to the anti-corruption field.
