Governance and Corruption

Governance refers to the systems, processes, and institutions that guide how a country or organization makes and enforces decisions, aiming for fairness, transparency, and accountability. Corruption involves dishonest or illegal practices by those in power for personal gain, such as bribery or favoritism. When governance is strong, it helps prevent corruption by promoting transparency and accountability. Conversely, weak governance can create opportunities for corruption, undermining trust, hindering development, and harming citizens' rights and resources. Good governance ensures responsible leadership and equitable resource management, reducing the risks and impacts of corruption.
