Tunis, Republic of Tunisia,
7/28/2015 - 7/29/2015
Organized by: UNDP, in partnership with the Office of the Chief of Government and in coordination with the National Anti-Corruption Authority
In partnership with the Office of the Chief of Government and in coordination with the National Anti-Corruption Authority, UNDP organized a consultation workshop in Tunis on 28-29 July. The event aimed at raising the awareness of key stakeholders, focusing on parliamentarians and civil society representatives, on the need to enhance the existing institutional and legislative framework on asset declarations that was established in 1987; and also to set up effective measures to criminalize and prosecute illicit enrichment. With the support of international and regional experts, participants familiarized themselves with related international standards as well as good practices and lessons learned from comparative experiences. They were also enabled to formulate and exchange views on the proposed bills that were developed by the Government in 2014 with the support of UNDP-ACIAC, with a view to contributing to their enhancement and promoting their adoption and effective implementation.
