Integrity in Government
Integrity in government refers to the genuine commitment of public officials to act honestly, ethically, and transparently, prioritizing the public's interest over personal or external gains. It involves consistent adherence to moral principles, accountability for one’s actions, and a dedication to fairness and justice. When government operates with integrity, it builds trust with citizens, ensures efficient and fair decision-making, and maintains the legitimacy of public institutions. Essentially, it means doing the right thing, even when no one is watching, to serve the common good effectively and ethically.
