The United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC)
The United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC) is an international treaty that aims to promote measures to prevent corruption, strengthen international cooperation, and enhance laws and institutions to fight illicit activities like bribery, embezzlement, and money laundering. It encourages countries to create transparent systems, hold officials accountable, and recover stolen assets. By fostering shared standards and collaboration, UNCAC strives to reduce corruption’s harmful effects on development, governance, and trust in public institutions worldwide.
