Description

The aim of the project is to develop new sources of finance not related to existing projects and activities: 1) by establishing strategic cooperation with private sector in Latvia and integrating them into Transparency International Latvia (Delna) initiatives, 2) by developing international projects with emphasis on transferring our competence to less democratic countries, in the frame of the UN Declaration of Human Rights and the UN Millennium Declaration.

TI Latvia''s plan for attracting additional funding and increasing financial independence is also marked by the current corruption trends. In order to respond to the international nature of corruption, TI Latvia''s activities must be developed from the national level to the international level, working to reduce corruption not only in Latvia, but also in the region, internationally. In order to respond to Latvia''s corruption problems (eg the Corruption Perceptions Index 2020), TI Latvia has to develop cooperation with the private sector on enhance companies to fight corruption by developing integrity in business.

The project and its activities will facilitate TI Latvia''s financial stability. It will attract, and integrate private sector to the anti-corruption community, as well as will enable TI Latvia to build a knowledge base to contribute to the fight against corruption internationally and transfer its expertise to countries in need. The indirect target group of the project is the general public, who will receive information about the project activities, and they in future can become business representatives, NGO members and active citizens.
