This week CPC held, with the support of German experts as part of the EU twinning project “Fostering integrity and preventing corruption in the public sector in Armenia”, kick-off meetings and workshops with three state-owned private organizations (Hayantar SNCO, Kindergarten 119, ANIF – Armenian National Interests Fund) with the aim of to carry out corruption risk analyses.
Conducting a risk analysis is the indispensable basis for setting up an integrity system in order to avoid corruption. Only those organizations who are aware of their risks can afterwards implement tailor-made preventive measures, either in the areas of internal control, staff awareness-rising or regulation. This applies to privatized commercial / non-commercial organizations as well as to public authorities.
This week՛s workshops proceeded in a very open and constructive atmosphere. It is intended – with further support from CPC and international experts – by each of the three organizations to create a corruption risk atlas by the end of 2023, which, if necessary, will define further preventive measures in the form of an individual action plan and then implement them timely.
